I am just a little surprised that no-one has commented on the above post. As I see it, MOL and Ryaniar are the thin end of the wedge in Europe just as Westway and Jetstar are in Oz. The union laws in Oz are more draconian and restrictive as far as employers are concerned than any laws we have in UK. If they can ride roughshod over the Oz law and get away with it, as they have, then believe me, MOL will do exactly the same here.
Once other airlines see what he is getting away with, you will be next in line.
I would not ignore this threat if I were you.
Complacency is not something you pilots are generrally so good at!
Me, I'm about to retire to the sunshine and don't really care one way or the other, but you have been warned.
