Seems to be a bit of thread creep here !

However, I am curious as to what is being offered to the BM pilots.
Can anyone who actually knows post it here? Not just the headlines the details.
ie When will the 10-15 year F/Os get commands?
How will their short haul bidding be protected ?
Where will they fit in to bid line?
Where will they join the pay scale and how do they progress up the pay scale?
Will BMI captains and F/Os continue to fly long haul as they do at present?
If the A330 fleet is retired and replaced by another type will BM pilots retrain on to the new type
Will BM pilots be paid as medium haul pilots?
Will they retain the 56 max 28 min days roster notice?
Will they still get leave based on length of seniority?
Will they still know their leave for Xmas in May?

In fact has anything at all been offered or is it just floating ideas at this stage with nothing solid on offer?

Back to the tread, should BALPA change its name to clearly reflect the pilot groups it represents and distance itself from the letters BA...
