Hello to you all,
As 'Head of tea pots' at BA I would just like to add my support to my colleagues on the flight deck.I thought I would communicate my views via the forum to help bring back CRM.
This is because since the locked door policy CRM these days is about as much use as the condom and the pill for a couple trying for children.
I feel at BA I earn a wage that justifies the job I do....
Serve tea&coffee,put out fires,medical help,evac an aircraft in 90 secs and bring back people to fly with us.
HOWEVER........my colleagues at the front are well qualfied,highly trained and at the end of the day can save my a*s and all the others.
To that end I feel that it is only fair they earn equal to their counterparts in 'Oneworld' e.g. Iberia who earn substantially more for somewhat less !!!!.
They are not asking for anything more than they deserve and
I sincerely hope on this occasion,regardless of the financial position of BA that management understands that unless they pay the going rate there are many airlines out there BA pilots can leave and go to other carriers paying higher saleries. BA ........beware!!!.
