Neville; you may well be correct however, if all we continue to do is create and make excuses, adopt an attitude of resignation, appeasement then we will continue to get rolled again and again.
Positive action by as many as possible as dictated previously here by all will achieve far more the PPRune posts or bar oratory.
Pilots did not achieve their positions, survive day to day with excuses and negativity but with decisive, positive action.
How about applying some more of this to protect our jobs?
