The takeover of BMI was always going to be bad news for us waiting to get in the door.
However the fact 300 pilots are now going to be ahead of us on the BA seniority list (in a year to 2 years time when integration is finally complete), is the better outcome (in context) than us being put at the bottom of a seniority list in BA Express.
Now the deal is done hopefully the recruitment wheels will start turning again, even a 34pp scale with a 5% increase in work and 2 days reduced leave is still FAR better than what im getting at my current employer.
The wait is killing me
