Antagonizing title?
The person who started this thread, are you a company man by any chance?
Your title has indeed caused a lot of emotions.
Why wasn't it entitled local pilots after an improvement in conditions?
I've asked a local pilot and they are not asking for pay and perks to the extent of an expat, just an improvement to their own conditions, that NR has already promised to them..at a later date, supposedly.
I guess if you wanted an argument, then you've got one, but pretty sad that you've got to alienate your fellow pilots to go and do so.
