If it has, or were to happen, which I currently sprinkle with a healthy dose of scepticism, then how would the pay scales be resolved with such a gap between the BMI pay scales and the Flybe Jet scales?
Top end for a Captain, using slightly rusty figures, shows a £40,000 difference.
That's going to be painful for anybody although I suppose the difference between the two scales and no pay is even bigger!
Good luck to all at BMI, it must be an awful time for you all and I hope it gets resolved amicably and without too much pain!
