My final comment on the subject.
During the Cityflyer merger there were 'plans in place' for a legal challenge. There were legal slush funds. Legal representation was sought.
The fact of the matter is the lawyers will tell you whatever you want to hear, it makes no difference to them whether you win or lose. They will still take your money.
In the end it was decided you've got to be in it to win it, and the Cityflyer pilots are now firmly established in the BA community.
But if you want to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory then be my guest...
Whatever the outcome I honestly wish the BMI guys and girls all the best in what may be uncertain times.
