Dear collegues,
As a LH pilot i would like to respond to previous posts.
I’ve been reading this thread and want to clear up something:
We do NOT disrespect any other pilots, from any kind of company.
Our management, either LH or LH cargo, is guilty of outsourcing. Jobs are being created and expansion is taking place in Germany and abroad somewhere else (EMB/B777), while jobs are being cut inside LH (A300/B737/MD11). This is a FACT and we can not accept this. And we won’t accept this.
Sure you can say that all of this is not of this time and that we should be more fair to others, but this is not the issue, we are solely fighting for OUR jobs, not more. This you fellow pilots must understand.
Please check out this short movie, it really gives a good view of the situation. Maybe it helps understanding our position.

Our Union understands our position for sure and i am sure they (we) will take action! Its just a matter of time. I’m really happy to be on this side though, it’s really comfortable.
Best regards,
