I'd probably go with option 3 also...

Thing is, most English folk are fairly pragmatic, BALPA is recognised by OSM, there is a functioning crew council that meets with the AOC holder on a regular basis to resolve issues, thus far they have agreed 3 year pay deal, a pension scheme with a employer contribution of 5%, a private medical insurance with BUPA, sector pay for positioning flights, duty pay for sim sit in duties, changes to the quality and location of hotels.

Now of course we could have engaged in all out conflict, but whats the point ? what would it achieve? your fixation of employment with Norwegian is irrational, you seem to believe that at a flick of a switch our contract could be terminated, well yes with 3 months notice that is correct, but that is true of any company and why would an airline that is desperate to recruit new pilots want to randomly sack 1 or more of them? your argument just doesn't make sense.

You have dedicated your life to cutting and pasting abstract articles about employment practices within Norwegian which frankly no one else seems to care about.

It is their train set and they choose how this wish to run it, so far you have suggested economic meltdown, air safety issue, false employment, non compliance with tax laws, tried your level best to support the american airlines and pilots in its attempt to deny DoT approval all to no avail , you have failed in everything and every point you've tried to make.

Perhaps if you had just got on with your job as a pilot instead of behaving like a teapot sprouting forth froth, you wouldn't feel so bitter and twisted.
