the impact of these changes is a reduction in safety and an undermining of the service, especially to Club passengers
I think we need to speak to the CAA. If safety is being compromised then how come the legal minimum crew level onboard a 3 Class 777 would be 6 crew? or is it 8 I can't remember.

Also can you please explain why, when previously asked to fly a crew member down, it didn't compromise safety because you were paid a one-down payment.... If it is a safety issue, why didn't you refuse to fly when you were one down.. Why compromise safety to line your own pocket?

As the Union will be using safety as a defence come Feb, I am genuinely interested to know the difference between a 1 down payment and working the same level for free??

Surely the LGW fleet should be grounded right away until the crewing levels can be brought into line with the OLD LHR agreement?
