Thats all well and good GT, but would you care to justify your comment on sunrise that what pilots and engineers are fighting for will cost $300 million per year? You didnt get time to do it on TV, but you have plenty of time to reply on this forum.

I emailed you a few week ago over a comment in The West about pilots earning $500,000 and while you replied to my question with some very good points, you didnt really answer it. As you well know, the uninformed public will take notice of figures. If they dont really know what staff travel or other benefits really mean, they do know about $$$. So to quote unrepresentative figures is akin to misreporting. I dont want to harp on about the 500k article because that is old news now, but your comment about the cost of the union demands is in the same vein. If you want to quote figures, make sure they are the truth.
