any other groups you want to exclude....ex ASL? ex Freighter? ex-members who may left due to increased subs? ex-members who left for other reasons?
All cases should be assessed on thir merits. Those that worked "AGAINST" the good of all members should not be allowed to join/re-join.
And No, I don't begrudge A scale, quite the opposite. IF we had a good membership we might have a shot at decent conditions for ALL.
I have no objection to MM IG RM GO MD etc etc coming back but for gods sake do it through the AOA, respecting ALL our contracts.
So you're telling me that these x Oasis Captains coming back DON'T harm our cause?? It most certainly does, in many ways.
Did any of these blokes bother to ask OUR union's opinion or help before applying?
NO of course not, they don't care about the rest of us.
take the ex-oasis issue to the company, not to them. you would take a job offered to you if your airline went bust....oh, no, i forgot.......we all fall on our swords dont we, lose our livelihood, possibly our families and homes....in the interests of our fellow pilots who would do just the same for us!
as a matter of fact I did just that back in 1989. YOU?
