NICE ONE CARP!!!!

I was told when I got my first job that you better join BALPA because if you had any probs they would be there for you.

B::::::S!!! Have you read the Log!!! Get real guys and get into the real world. Guys getting ripped off by TRTOs for 737 training with promised job at the end, and guess what you get at the end? Thats it no job and a load of debt.

So called sponsorship in Southampton and 6 years graft for little pay. Lets just have a level playing field and a decent salary for F/Os

When the day arrived and I needed legal help, I phoned the number on my Memb/Card and got put intouch with a legal guy on his mobile who promised to call me back!!!
Yep you guessed it 3 months later I am still waiting!! for his returned call.

You can get the same amount of legal help that is offered by BALPA for less than a fiver with the Transport and General Union.
