All very interesting beaver eager, but it still doesn't address the situation.
IF all this has been going on for soooo long, why hasn't there been any action from BALPA?
After all, they DO represent the FD crew, do they not?
Me thinks...BALPA, just a bunch of p*****s, completely unable to get their ducks in a row.
And, not unsurprising, EVERY former BA pilot I have ever met over the years (plenty) has just as much contempt for BALPA as the company has...which is a lot.
In short, company wins...just like always.
Expect NOTHING different.
One wonders...just where is the BALPA backbone?
Go ahead, prove me wrong.
Five will get you ten there will be NO action whatsoever...BALPA will cave, in the end.
