Inconsistency
I've read some of the correspondence on this subject but not all because being a very old but not very bold ex BA pilot, I've spent the last month of my hard earned retirement on a loooong holiday. I do not understand why BALPA appears to be fighting for Open skies pilots to be on a common seniority list when they refused to let GSS co-pilots join the BA list but at the same time forced GSS to engage potential captains from mainline. If I have missed something, please tell me. I fully understand the threat to BA pilots and they have my support. However I think BALPA treated their GSS co-pilot members in a manner which is inconsistent with regard to their present position on Open Skies.
