A Lurker, as Hiflyer quite rightly pointed out it quite clearly (very clearly infact) says new crew ie. new recruits for the future will be on market rate plus 10% - so they still will be on a reasonable salary, we will be on ours still, unless we want to transfer that is.... In all the documents ie. the very contraversial ''Project Columbus'' documents and all emails Bill (or STS when columbus was first rumoured) have stated they want to minimize the impact on us current crew. We will NOT be forced on NF, we will just have to work harder which isn't exactly hard is it, as we still have a good lifestyle compared to many airlines! BASSA where the ones that started suggesting ''oooh we will be starved of work'' - it is something that we don't know will happen but you cannot just completely mistrust BA.

BASSA/Unite's refusal to negotiate anything will bring about NF even quicker anyway! BA gave you the option to negotiate savvily to change some things on our fleets but did some of the BASSA WW CSDs want to work on a trolley? No! Did they want fixed links etc etc no, did they want to work harder? NO! They wanted their cake and to eat it actually! Well they can't!
