Democritus I remember your case(s) very well as it was really the first time that we all realised that even employment law would ultimately not recognise our industrial agreements.

PITTS - I will answer your question once but seeing as you are dysfunctional I doubt you will understand. The pilots are balloting because the Company has instigated a redundancy policy that ignores the existing industrial agreement. An agreement the pilots have followed faithfully in the hope the Company would do the same. Without such agreements, rosters, pay, conditions would be back to Victorian times. Such is the level of social intelligence amongst the average NS Manager.

As I already stated, telling everyi pilot they are all at risk is Fundementally unsafe. No one in the cockpit is immune from worry about their future. I hope the CAA can fins a legislative stick to beat the management over the head with.
