Anton seems full of contradictions! Bmi pilots don't want to depose BA pilots if their seniority but want zippered seniority on joining? The two are mutually exclusive! Bmi pilots don't want to be seen as the enemy but see themselves as a 'lower cost option'?! Let me disabuse you of that notion. Bmi pilots are not a lower cost option. They are not an option at all. They are an administrative problem that BA is legally obliged to deal with. There will be no expansion of the Bmi group after integration, you will never be big enough or cheap enough to make it worth BAs while to fight the main body of employees. If you think that BA pilots are treating you like scum then it's time to man up because your toys are gonna be launched into outer space when you see how IAG will treat you!!
