I agree with a lot of what you all say. there is no doubt you are underpaid.

But as I say to anyone who talks about industrial action with the exception of the BACX guys:

Did you know the package before you signed up? If so why did you join?

Stick at the negotiations though, I fully agree with you. But I am confused as to why some of the more vocal folk here joined Flybe in the first place.

The question also sticks in my mind. What does a turboprop First Officer feel he/she is worth? "when I were a lad" (in best yorkshire accent!) £2k take home was, and still is a decent salary. You are in a completely different job to an EZY FO so why should you be paid the same?
