I think crew have already decided to vote with their feet. Fighting is seems not worth the effort. Management have decided that cadets are the solution to people leaving at thats it. Thus no real improvement in T&Cs.
The near future doesn't look good with so many people having jobs lined up with other companies. I would say at a guess that in the next two months the resignations will be thick and fast. Once others' training programs start to move again that is.
This will cause major disruption to services. You think the pilot shortage has affected the company, you aint seen nothing yet! Also factor in that the training of pilots is too slow due to the somewhat 'stalled' sim training and the loss of good quality check and trainers. It is barely handling the current requirements as it is.
I actually think the point of no return is fast being reached. Management will still be sitting in their 3rd floor board room looking at a row of W/Ts parked against the fence. Oh, and thinking, "at least the Beemer in the car park has been paid off."
