Hi biddedout
Just to clarify: As far as inventing some kind of secondment arrangement "on the hoof" is concerned. Management's very first approach was to offer exactly that with OpenLies. We could have secured ALL the available commands on that basis! Balpa were not interested. Perhaps because of the mistakes that were made in Bacon?? Maybe for other reasons. (Perhaps there are bigger fish to fry!)
Which is why I suspect you were not told the truth about BACC's resistance to Bacon pilots joining the Master Seniority List. I think you were exceptionally badly represented, and I cannot imagine why the BACC would be the group to block the incorporation of Bacons into mainline.
I'm sure you should be looking elsewhere.
However: Even BA pilots have not yet woken up to the intensity to which this dispute will be escalated.
Who knows where this might end up?
Anyone who claims to know is either lying, extremely naive, or just lacking in imagination!
That's all.
