So what exactly is specially magic about BA pilots that their employment and Ts&Cs should be protected? - the rest of the world's workforce hasn't had that luxury for decades.
This is not about BA pilots terms and conditions, even WW says he has no wish to reduce mainline pay (and after a 1st 3 quaters profit of £700m and 10% operating profit being in sight why would he). This is about opportunities for BA pilots and yet to be hired OS pilots.
If this goes ahead with no change to scope an internal market for BA work will develop and mainline will lose routes/jobs/aircraft. We just want to participate in the growth possible in OS, BALPA have offered to have a new contract for OS pilots written by BA. In short THIS IS NOT ABOUT MONEY FOR MAINLINE PILOTS.
