Dear DS
Towards the end you said 'that the pilots are finally seen as equal stakeholders'
I do not desire to be seen as an equal stakeholder, which would never happen anyway.
I also don't need to be seen as an equal stakeholder in order to 'feel' part of the culture, history and the product, I can do that on my own terms.
Also I would suggest that if you are giving away (our) concessions due to their stuff ups, there is a clause somewhere that our concessions are null and void as soon as the hedging contract has expired.
This is all temporary y'all!
Let's make sure the concessions are as well.
