it appears micko is getting worried about this situation.
Must be lonely at the barricades, CamelhAir, with just yourself, the Dim Repa and a tepid flask of hot chockie for company. There’s nothing sadder than an old warrior who won’t admit, or as is more likely in your case, doesn’t know that the battle’s lost.
REPA, your IALPA funded fiasco has been comprehensively emasculated, its only lingering legacy the disfigured stickers calling for membership of the “punity disunity community” plastered all over our brand new aircraft, and now you’re reduced to spending your time gathering support for IALPA’s latest outrage of the indefensible.
Rather than appearing when our Alexander is in trouble, I rather think I lead the trumpet chorus. We now own thirty percent of EI, we have a massively expanding operation, the most profitable airline on earth by a very long way, margins of over 20% that would have even the most stoic airline CFO’s the world over salivating like hungry wolves, and that sounds like trouble to you, does it? Sounds like he’s doing alright to me.
You, on the other hand, chose to celebrate all this unbridled success, victory after victory, by calling for tacit support of the idea that a bunch of millionaire dingbat airbus drivers who actually believe the sweet bull!!!! IALPA has been feeding them for years that they’re better than anyone else, can reasonably object to Aer Lingus management choosing to do something cleverer with all those gorgeous LHR slots than operate half empty A320’s to SNN and ORK? What a strange world it must be, to live in CamelhAir land. Just like the stickers, you and those like you will peel, fade and become irrelevant.
Poor Dermot Mannion. Imagine running a company where even some of its pilots think as you do. If he had any balls at all, he’d break IALPA once and for all, exposing them and the drooling, polyester pygmy who leads its for the incompetent boobs and self-destructive imbeciles that they are. Left to their own devices, IALPA will destroy Aer Lingus through suicide by union. Its only hope of a future now is Ryanair.
