Those predictions may be right or wrong, but I don't think I'd be handing in my notice to take a position with OS just yet.
It's not the IFALPA stance that would worry me (didn't achieve much for the HK boyos did they?) far less the BACC; it's just that until things look settled, well, they're not settled are they? Jam tomorrow is all well and good, but you need to eat today as well.
God bless all on board!
