I'm sure that Jet Two doesn't exist for the sole benefit of the pilots so it is obvious tha the contracts are weighted in favour of the company and their shareholders. No one is pressuring anyone to take the job, but if it gets yo current again, and allows you to move on somewhere else, be it Emirates, Etihad or one of the agency contracts in the Far East isn't that good enough? Take it for what it's worth to you if you want to, or take one of your other options if you have any, and if they are better. Please don't get the impression that I think what they are doing is fair or right, but it is legal, and they seem to be one of very few airlines in the country that is expanding it's business if only on a seasonal basis. If they are going to use you feel free to use them: it's your choice.
