Who says that any of the information about the bmi cc actions is true. They are trying their best to protect a wide variation of pilots at different points in their careers. They cannot represent all groups within the pilot community. Say they represent the position of relatively new FO's with the view of you keep your job, bottom of MSL and frozen on 320 for 5 years, no bid rights. This group would go ok I can do that, but is it fair that a captain on the A330 and a TRE get this too? I guess the cc are trying to secure a fair deal for the average pilot at bmi which should keep most happy. Give the cc a break they are professional pilots not negotiators.
