Well since this is PPRuNe and this is a good rumour I thought I'd share it:
Declan Dooney and the Brookfield lot are working on a new contract and we will all be given the 3 months sign or don't sign deal.
Now that's not new news, I know.
However, it would seem that in this new 'deal' - you would be working FOR Brookfield, rather than a contractor (Although, still not directly for Ryanair)
This would mean there would be an element of salary as well as sector pay - although you still have to sort out your own tax/pensions/everything else.
For those of us on the "old" brookfield contract, this is going to hurt...
