I understand that BA plan to take 12 of the Baby B737s as they are in better nick than the BA B737s at LGW.

So why are the Baby pilots being discarded by BA? It doesn't seem to make sense given that BA need to recruit large numbers of pilots over the next few years. Whilst BA have been consistent from the first in expressing their intention to dispose of Baby if there were no buyer - is this a case of throwing out the pilots with the Baby?

I believe this is a line that BALPA are exploring in an effort to mitigate redundancies at Baby.
