I'm not sure if it's the same for you drivers, as an ex BACON engineer I left when Fly(may)Be took over for the simple reason that I would not have recieved a pay rise for 3 years due to being "red ringed". I couldn't live with that and obviously couldn't afford it.
Fly(may)Be destroyed a fantastic base and bunch of Manchester engineers and will probably do the same if the Bmir take over goes through.
As for the service FlyBe provide, I actually think its good, I have flown with them many times in the course of my new job.
I feel for the ex BACON engineers that jumped to Bmir when the take over took place and now face the same problems.
