We do have different views, but that is what they are, views. Mine have changed throughout this saga, but it has taught me to become more educated (hopefully) about the correct way to do business.

Change is airlines and it is about taking a reasonable approach to the constant development.

There are two possibilities as it stands today, the current offer or the new contract. Tomorrow, there may only be one. You cannot guarantee the future and it is an almost impossible request. Would I be fearful of maintaining my position if I was on a pre 97 contract? Yes 100%. What would I be looking for if I was on it? Protection against 90 days notice. BA cannot replace 8000 plus crew overnight and they are not going to want these crew sitting at home, unless they are paid more than the whole of the salary of the new contract deal in allowances.

Principles do not make mortgage payments.
