SR71
I can't make head or tail of your post; what did you think I meant?
As for research, I did some before posting, as it happens; I compared BA's last published profit figures with certain other airlines'. On none of the many ways of interpreting the description "the most profitable airline in the world" does the assertion that BA is "the most profitable airline in the world" stand up.
It seems to me important that BA's pilots, if they really think that BA is "the most profitable airline in the world" and thus able to suffer large losses with impunity, are gently told that this is not the case.
That fine didn't help. either.
I hope that overstressed doesn't take umbrage again at another foul-mouthed rant.
