Changing of the guard hey, I guess it was only a matter of time it is a contract after all. Dissapointing for the rfds pilots with the conditions they have built up over time, this is how they get erroded all legal like!
In any case there is two years left and the pressure will be on the next operator to get their act together in time to start. Look forward to seeing who gets SY now, it should be announced very soon I think.
I would say there would be a clause dictating the minimum experience levels for the pilots to fly the line, hopefully everyone who wishes to keep their job does so.
