Give us SCOPE and the money will follow. Pilot shortages. Mass Exodus of 737 co-pilots to Easy at LGW and LTN. Flights cancelled due insufficient crews. 'Trouble brewing' causes huge dip in forward bookings. Pay rise by Christmas. Just remember SCOPE is not an unfair request regardless of how the Daily Mail may try to report it.
The majority of BA short haul pilots are paid the same or less than GB/Bmed pilots. SCOPE is the request by BA pilots to include all work done by BRITISH AIRWAYS painted aircraft to be done by BRITISH AIRWAYS pilots. BA routes deemed 'unprofitable' that are donated to GB/BMed are not unprofitable due to flight crew costs. Look elsewhere and you shall find the answer.
