It is far from level and everybody knows it.
For instance factoring, if only that would be judged illegal by EU (or US) authorities it would make a big difference and an improvement for you guys.
The EU unions are your backdoor to the european parliament.
Use them!

Or perhaps you are saying that EU airlines should do factoring as well? Then nobody can argue against the unions getting involved.
Given past experiences of unions I was in not caring about their own members, I find it incredulous that any union has any good intention for non members. I'm sorry, but this play by the Germans is not for our benefit, and them claiming it to be so should make everyone even more suspicious.
