Perhaps we need someone like Andy Gilchrist? Whatever your views on the firemans strike (I am a supporter) they have a Trade Union leader who shows leadership and courage.
Did we ever see Chris Darke getting ovations at rallys?
Nope.
I hope they get someone soon who will give BALPA a bit of a lead. I just can't see them finding a commited leader via an executive recruitment consultant.
Isn't it time we had an election and encouraged a pilot to step forward?
After all, it is a political appointment as opposed to a career management post.
Time for some action please.
