stress free et al,
All you boys rubbishing BALPA just don't get it, do you? You all, without exception, refer to BALPA as some distinct entity which failed to save your
ar5es in your hour of need. That is a fundamental misunderstanding.
BALPA is an association which can only serve to help pilots who have some degree of resolve to act in unison to protect their mutual interests. Without a reasonable number of pilots willing to stand up for themselves it really doesn't matter whether you have BALPA, the UN or Rambo on your side.
BALPA is not going to sort out the Ryanair problem - BUT it can act as a focus for Ryanair pilots to act for themselves.
