1997 35,68 % was owned by German State the rest was private. DLH was not owned by the State!
Yes you are right, it was until 1994 that the state owned more than 50% of the airline, until 1987 it was about 75%, thats what we called a state owned airline.
Anyway, keep it easy, no one whats to hurt you.
In some way you are right, increasing salary of the flagg carrier should also improve the conditions of the private airlines, unfortunatly reality is different, because you guys keep many pilots out of the "LH Konzern" a lot of pilots are happy to fly for AB, Bluewings, Germania, etc even if they pay a lot less.
Even Condor now jumps on this and offers contracts much much lower than what should be paid.....and why??? Because once failed the DLR at the age of 23, LH, LH Cargo, Cityline, Germanwigs and even AUA is closed, so not much left. So you see, it doesnt realy work as you might think.
As I say, you have every right to protect your rights and we have to accept it, but if LH finds a way to get this a/c out of the KTV than you just have to accept it.
I understand your situation and you should fight for your rights, but you should also understand, that there are many pilots out there who are looking for a job and are happy if there are a few new opportunities, specialy in a new airline owned by LH.
You are not alone on this world, there are ohters too.
