although I am not a pro-striker I do think that aircrew need a union with teeth.
The BA CC strike over losing one member of staff on some flights is a bit pointless but I whole heartidly agree with them for striking over new comers T+C being worse than existing contracts. If only aircrew did the same, pay to fly would not exist, neither would contracting. And how much more effective would striking pilots be, they can hardly train up office staff to cover..!
Good on them for standing up for themselves. I hope the likes of EZY follow suit with their 6 months work experience type of 'work' they have been offering CTC'ers.
PS - I have greatly enjoyed honking my horn at you guys and gals round hatton x over the weekend, cheered me up seeing a bunch of lovely girlies waving flags as I was driving past
