There may well be 1300 members, but that does not mean there will be a collective unionised strike or anything as its not recognised as anything more than a forum, but it is a great place for us all to get our heads together without all the PPRUNE slagging off that takes over every thread.
Join up, well worth a peek.
zerotohero and vexed cheers.
@ Mikehotel... I agree with you there is bigger issues, but personally it is the in your face disrespect that comes with these “small issues” that wears down the BRK guy.

"Expenses incurred in relation to my job are deducted from my tax bill"
No disrespect but I don’t agree with this argument I hear regularly. It still costs you, you only get it deducted from gross pay, the tax thing is not a refund,

you’re lucky to see 25-30% of the expense back.
Regarding the IDs; obviously they need more flexibility this summer; however I think management have a second motive.
They may want to send out a message “Look guys, were doing so well even with these pilot loses that we can still rob you,

so don’t expect much change in terms and conditions.”

Knock us down, and then offer us something because they are so “generous”.
How many pilots this week will say bored in flight " God I though mangement would be worried but got email other day asking for money for ID...bla bla... they must not be having any issues"
Great post Captain Kilo
