Just to correct a minor point Hudd, I have nothing to do with management. However, I do want the merger to be a success, as do, I suspect the vast majority of pilots in both airlines. I have yet to experience any of the militancy that you claim exists. Most people understand the rationale for the merger and the short term pain that goes with it.
The future for both companies is now much brighter and providing Balpa and the Company both approach the consultations with a positive outlook we will all benefit in the long run.
What I will not do is allow the spreading of false rumours and innuendo to go unchallenged by a few individuals with their own agenda.
The nature of mergers is that there are job losses and now that the number is down to 73 from 100 I suspect that no pilot will be made compulsory redundant and all who leave will do so voluntarily.
Please explain why the “winter offset argument holds no water”.
