I'm not blaming airage. I'm pointing out he can hardly expect anyone to be disadvantaged the way BACC are trying to do to us with scope and not complain. The more so when you see what BA has done to our Company.

airage should put himself in our shoes, and then just maybe he'll realise that his CC have scored once with DanAir a few years back. The world knows what they are like, their record speaks for itself even if it weren't vocalised by the likes of Kevin Judkins and Han Solo. No, we will not lie down and be walked all over.

Cu has a very good suggestion, but it will never happen, beacuase there would be a BA mainline outcry.
Remeber what Kevin said

"We could have said, no they are now bottom of the Seniority, we want all Pilot positions filled by bidding which would cost BA and put all ex-CFE/BRAL guys at the bottom of SH RHS..."

or
"There is no question of any CE guys flying the Rj on 'secondment' to BA as effectively they would be on a mainline aircraft on inferior terms..."

or
"I am telling you that if you want to be able to protect what you can/cannot fly, and the terms for the forseeable future, then you will support Scope...."

and
"The sooner you accept that you are now part of BA so anything that is good for BA Pilots is now good for you as well the better.."

In other words he is dictating his issue terms, and not even attempting to see the other side......oh, I really can't be bothered with this any more. Time will tell soon enough.
