Sounds good, however by submitting a report via your system I face being stung by the company for not reporting the issue via their system, particularly as the report would need details of the event which could then easily be used to identify the reporter.
Very true and it all fits in. There are a number of ways around this or options we could go for.
1. If they could nail it down to one or two pilots, openly state that you are concerned the company would treat us unfairly and therefore elect to have your name witheld and report it through a third party. This creates two problems for them, the original one and the lack of confidence in internal reporting.
2. Leave it vague enough so they didn't know exactly who could have reported it, lots of issues could have been either cabin or flt crew or my mates.
