Rupetime,
I respect your opinion. Most pilots at HV are not really happy about this possible strike, but if you look at it like that, when is it really "safe" to use this method? There is always something going on: Sept. 11th, bad economy, strong competition, you name it! In the Netherlands a strike is kinda rare, nobody's really happy about it, but it has to be done...
By the way, why compare HV with EZY? What do they have in common, except for the strike-plans?

Why don't you throw AF in as a bonus?
Regards.
