I disagree with Harry on the CR issue, but he's right in not believing in any help from the VC.
They fight for their T&Cs and jobs, to a lesser extent for safety. Any ammunition is most welcome, especially against the ME3, as they consider them the biggest threat to the above.
Now if we provide arguments to curtail the ME3 business and they would subsequently lay off pilots, would any of you think that the VC would accept stranded pilots from the pit as DEFO or DECs?
No way.
So think hard before you feed them.
