Thanks Devellish for your post. I am not going to agree or disagree with you. I just hope that your antagonists can come up with a posting as well written and unemotional as yours. It would do this forum much good.
I have been followoing this debate for months now and still it is not exactly clear as to why Open Skies is so bad to us all. And once I saw the word scab being used I really lost all interest. What rests now is the question: was this afair necessary?
On the other corner of the BALPA room there are companies that have 10 or more different contracts for the same pilot workforce, one contract for every EU-country and other things far more immediately threatening than Open Skies. I wish issues like these would get as much attention from BALPA HQ.
