Fair point F111.
The industrial justice I was refering to was progression (transparent progression that is) within VA itself. If there were to be any sort of formal arrangement with progression from VA to
VB, then surely the interests of both pilot groups must be served. VA management made a point of stating that the 2 companies were completely seperate when it suited them (poorer T&C's even though a much larger aircraft), so surely any cross crewing must result in a change to that stance. To this end, I would imagine there needs to ba a fair and transparent negotiation agreed by all parties (VA pilots,
VB pilots, and management). Is there such a negotiation under way?
Anything less will more than likely result in friction and pilot group disunity. Errr... wait a minute? Hope it's not too early to break out the bubbly!
