while every other airline in the country was instigating insidious recruitment practices, pay-for-type-rating, pay-to-fly and all other kinds of general exploitative shaftings, and generally doing everything in their power to get young wannabes to pay massively inflated prices for costs that were always previously borne by the airlines?
Not quite, my airline Flybe does not charge new starts anything, nil, nowt...
However, I agree with the general message you are sending.
Balpa should hang their head in shame, sure they could not have done
anything about P2F, but they should have been publicising it, get it in
the press and keep pushing, but no, they said practically nowt.
Mind you, the airline who ruined this industry is not in the UK so out
of Balpa's reach.
(I am a Balpa supporter I want to point out.)
