Dear mr solo, as others have said here you seem to have an answer to everything. I must point out..... the BACON pilot issue was a non starter, if BA offered a settlement to BA 757/767 pilots only in any dispute you would probably be the first to cry that we must stick together, this is exactly what happened at BACON. you made an offer to only a part of the workforce (RJ100 Pilots only), the BACON cc had no choice but to reject the offer as the pilot force must stick together. The offer you made was near as damn it worthless. BUT did you realise the concequences of these actions? the ex Airuk / KLMuk pilots were involved in a bitter dispute with KLM over discrimination etc. The managment there simple said "look in your own back yard at BA and BACON", made our fight even harder!!!
As I have said I really do support you guys , but please stop this fortress BA. As many of you have said BA lead the T and C for the UK. Now if you were to insist that the BA Cityflyer pilots should be bought into the BA fold as well as the OS pilots THEN you would be shouting a far more credible cry. As it is you look as if you are cherry picking which will damage you in the future.
