The absolute unfairness of it all is that an ex SR 320 F/O flying say ZRH-GVA is rated as an A or (long hauler) while the ex LX MD80 Captain flying the same leg is rated as a B or (short haul).
Instead of bitching, gofer, you should do a reality check! There are no more A320 F/O with SWISS, as all former SR F/O that did not have the A330 rating (and even some of those who did) were layed off!
So, if you get a higher salary flying the A320, it will be the first Crossair pilots that do a transition to the Airbus that profit of this higher salary. The already A320 qualified former SR F/Os that got layed off can, after a new application, start on the Saab as a B pilot, as you call it. If this was not absolutely outrageous, it woud be ridiculous!
So what we have is about 180 well trained and qualified Airbus F/Os that lost their jobs, while the former LX pilots, who prove their lack of situational awareness every day - by making statments as you, gofer, do - can keep flying and will eventually be upgraded to bigger aircraft types, that former SR selection once said most of them would better keep their hands off!
