VS Pilots are going to find out what the real world is like fairly soon.

The PPU will succeed in getting BALPA's voluntary Recognition Agreement withdrawn by VS but will never be recognised themselves. Just google the A.L.A.E Union Recognition in Virgin Atlantic case to see the lengths Virgin will go to to prevent this from happening.

So once you've helped the Company get rid of your representation watch what they do to your very spoilt Terms and Conditions.

Quite frankly you deserve it, I've watched as the complaints and accusations are thrown but hardly any of you actually do anything about it. You've left it to some of the members of previous VACC's to find alternatives but there is no real new blood. Interestingly not all of those past VACC members are on board the new wagon.

VS Pilots are wrapped in cotton wool, expect BALPA to do everything for them but won't get their hands dirty themselves. Well you are now going to have to lie in the bed you've made!
