So this MMF malarky .. let me get this straight .. we get trained on the 75 or 76 and the NG .. but due to most of our low seniority in the left we dont get any plumb routes like a week in CUN .. just the opportunity to do the friday night Ibiza .. no extra money for all this book work each night before flying just to check you know your "onions"... or will the long haul then be allocated by base .. so potentially a low seniority crew may then be rostered a long haul trip ahead of "Captain and F/O high on seniority list" .. You see MFF is being heralded as close to the "second coming" however it would be nice if someone from management or BALPA would explain the possible implications to us all. My feeling is they havn't as no one has worked it out .. worried naaah .. concerned ..possibly .. intrigued definitely ..

Or is this like Carmen to be thrust on us without any thorough explanation of how it truly works, how it hangs together .. and as the document stated "Bid for what you really want " .. which as we all now know was the worse advice since someone told Tony Blair "You know those Iraqi's we reckon they have weapons of mass destruction" ... so feeling in the dark and grappling for a light switch .. or even a very dim candle just to spot the way forward
