It would seem to me that those bemoaning the OP's suffering are going about this the wrong way.
The fact is the the T&Cs that FR & EZY are now offering are dragging us all down.
If those 2 companies start losing experienced pilots then the competition amongst the airlines for T&Cs begins and so we will improve our lot.
The one who moaned about being at FlyBe, well if you want to move on, wouldn't you like to have a better airline to move onto or would you rather that we all threw in the towel so your future doesn't look as enthralling as it might otherwise be.
Let us not discourage a colleague from trying to improve his/her lot, because if we offer support then our lot will get better.
