Ryanair threatens it's pilots, again.

Three senior Managers called a meeting with STN base Pilots this week in response to the BALPA respect and recognition campaign being run by BALPA.

They threatened that if a Union was formed they would:

Not upgrade F/Os to Captain
Freeze all transfers in and out of all UK bases.
Change the roster from 5/4 to 5/2
Close two UK bases
Refuse to meet with BALPA even after recognition rights were awarded.

And so on and so forth.

I hope Ryanair Pilots realize that these are scare tactics from a management we have on the run. THEY need 5/4, new Captains, trainers and transfers. They threaten to erode our T&Cs? I say they have been consistently doing this for the past 10 years and will continue to do so wether we have a Union or not.

So what have we got to lose over the long term?

Over to you FR management=Leo Hairy Camel

(Anyone elses management communicate with the workforce via PPRuNe?)
