Maybe it is but what has been said is only the truth. With 11 days to go I STILL don't know if I have a job on 1 Sep. After 20yrs service in the N Sea this is the worst I have been treated by a long way. It is intentional which is why Bristow seem to be being bashed. They want as many pilots as possible to be frightened into finding other jobs, before 1 Sep, so they don't have to pay them redundancy. They profess to be only taking 12 out of 29 pilots under TUPE so their potential redundancy payment, and they are paying the absolute minimum, could have been close to £400,000 and they are trying their best to reduce this.

Imagine if you were a 40yr old Captain with 2 kids at a local school and a reasonable mortgage how would you feel with 11 days to go!!
