Are those BA mainline pilots the ones who struck against Openskies a few months ago?
"The company will use this poorer-paid pilot force as a Trojan horse to beat down the pay and conditions of its current pilot employees," BALPA General Secretary Jim McAuslan told a meeting of BA pilots at London Heathrow. "We want all pilots in BA and this subsidiary to be part of one BA pilot workforce. BA planes must be flown by BA pilots. We are going to learn the lessons of other airlines and we are determined to stop the outsourcing of our jobs."
That's gonna be fun BIG time...
