There are hundreds of pilots out there who will do the VS pilots jobs for a lot less money. It is called supply and demand.
Beardy should hold firm and cancel his striking pilots staff travel for life. Branson should then follow BA's example of sacking union reps and suspending any VS pilots who send inflamatory texts or Faceb**k messages about non strikers. Any intimidation of pilots who disagree with the strike should be dealt with by the full force of the companies disciplinary procedures.
I am confident that VIRGIN's team of lawyers will find a way to injunct this strike and declare the ballot void.
It is about time that BALPA was busted. The union caused trouble at BA turning a blind eye to its members flying as cabin crew, and now wants to call a strike.
Hypocrisy, utter hypocrisy.
