Everybody has to give or there won't be a future for swiss aviation. There will be no further chance. Face it.
What did Swissair pilots give ??
Surely not Salary, or a few. This magic 35% is Bull**** as you know, we have both salary list, before and after Swissair... How can you explain that some SR F/O even get an increase of salary ??
Vacations?? No, just the same as before
Aircraft type ??? Doesn't look liike it.
Seniority ?? Well for the time being you're alone in the BGAV
I'm happy to see that in this forum there is some people (aviation specialists) that know the goal and the meaning of a seniority system...
When a Crossair Captain with 15 years of experience on MD80 (old SR aircraft) wanted to join Swissair, guess what, he had to start as copilot on the A320 with the lowest seniority! Can you please explain me why SkyPointer. Do you think he is less safe than a 4 years Swissair F/O ?????
Why don't you just drop your seniority number if it has no importance for you??
I still believe that the Zipper would solve the problem if aeropers is willing to approve it... And by the way, Swiss has to comply with the court verdict... They already gave us the same vacations as SR retroactive to April 1st 2002, Bonus , same salary as MD11 for MD80 pilots and now they request per mail everyday our union to withdrawn the complaint about Seniority!!! Because they know they will have to comply like for the other topics.
I don't see politics telling us that we have to forget about the law, it's not that easy, otherwise why should I pay my tax??
I have nothing against SR pilots, I'm sure there is plenty of you that are willing to solve the problem without any court rulling!
We're ready to give you half of OUR seniority by accepting a zipper, why don't you take the chance??
