So mr 757 Driver and mr bus driver lhr: what would you have done to save the (45) jobs currently at risk in bmi? Don't forget you have to do it without disadvantaging any of your colleagues.
One option may have been a Voluntary Redundancy package (as agreed by the BACC a few years ago) across the entire pilot workforce, which would quite possibly have eliminated all mainline redundancies (VR amongst 3550 pilots is much more effective than across 300). I'm sure there are other options that the BACC would come up with. They frequently surprise us with inventive solutions. They've become quite adept at knowing what will appeal to BA.
