Anti-Ice,

Hand Solo will answer your comments himself, I'm sure, but could I just repeat his question.

When did BA pilots last go on STRIKE?

Please do not confuse this with, "when did BA pilots last ballot for industrial action?"

By the way, were you aware that BA pilots have improved productivity by over 30% since 1997, by "negotiation with", not "imposition by" their managers? There has been the occasional fall-out as some Senior Bods tried to make a name for themselves but on the whole our relationship with our seniors has been far from fractious.

I take your point about Staff Travel. I think reality is somewhere in between our two versions.

Further to your previous posting, Anti - Ice,

You said, "The Ground staff really enjoy their job and have adapted already (along with all other BA staff), to a sweeping range of cost cutting changes under Future size & shape and the business response scheme. Saving £1billion in the process."

Could you summarise what contribution C.S.A.'s have made for the benefit of the rest of BA by way of
  • Cost Cutting measures and
  • More efficient working practices?
