I suspect that existing BA pilots would quite like the experience of some of bmi's medium haul routes/nightstops
I bet they would!
For precisely the reasons outlined by TopBunk, it seems to me that BMI pilots would do well to keep
ALL the MH/LH routes that they currently operate? rostered in the way they currently are (albeit working harder for their new owner). That way Jockster has no grounds for complaint, and neither do BMI's A319/320/321 pilots?
I can't imagine anybody could possibly object to the standalone operation that would result? Not that I imagine it's what many in BA would have hoped for?
Tidy!
