Uninformed claptrap. BAR pilots are mainline and will stay with the 737/A319 until the end. Then they will go to London. There will be no BAR pilots flying BACE 146s because:
1. We work for BA, not BACE.
2. We wouldn't downgrade to BACE T&Cs
There is certainly no means within BA to direct trained, type-rate pilots off their current fleet on to the fleet of a different AOC holder. Plus who the heck wants to downgrade from an Airbus to a 146?
Secret squirrel
I dont think rhythm method is a cadet. From other posts he seems to work for BRAL and is feeling particularly smug regarding the BAR merger. If that is the case then he fails to realise he is merely embarking on a downward spiral for his terms and conditions, cos BACE are going to inherit our managers and soon he'll be too expensive too! Suggest you check out his profile before biting!
