Good post License to Fly and well said HiFlyer.

BASSA won't give the members who crossed the picket line the time of day. This is evident on 'other' forums where some of them are being given a tough time saying they'll be hounded and that they are. How did it ever get to this stage?

My experience with crew generally has always been that they are a nice bunch of people. How did the atmosphere get so toxic and a minority get so venomous that they are making the lives of the crew who came to work so miserable. The bullying is only one way, from the militant BASSA minority

It's sad to see the divide in our crew community where we are now fighting each other instead of collectively trying to preserve or save our jobs from Mixed Fleet. There is no denying that in 20 years time, present fleets may cease to exist but then as previously said, we've had it really good for a long time.
Things have to change, accepted, but it's the way you go about accepting that change.
Striking is not an option.
BASSA have no choice but to accept this decent offer on the table, grab it now before it gets worse and then deal with Staff Travel. A bird in the hand springs to mind....
