Hey Driver,

Shame, shame, shame, BA Tech Crew should be holding their heads low after allowing this to have happened.
Some solidarity around a colleague after a major incident or accident, would have been the decent thing to do.
Reserving judgement and quashing rumuor until the official findings are clear.
I think you will find that BA tech crew were proud of Pete's handling of the incident and have no criticism of him.
It was the cabin crew instructors that spread rumours that upset Pete.
I suspect a lot of the criticisms on this forum by people who were not there, not qualified on the 777 and not familiar with BA procedures probably upset him too.
Have you thought of reapplying to BA Pete? I'd be happy to see you reinstated in your original position and seniority. It would be a nice gesture from BA to make an exception for you.
