Scotia & Bristows Private Forum
There have been many suggestions about setting up a private forum for Scotia & Bristows pilots.
It could be a nice 'first step' to get people together in all the subjects we are concerned about (No. 1: payrise).
We would need a minimum number of people willing to actively use it. We will be able to achieve this if we put both workforces together.
If you're interested, just drop a line in this thread.
Let's put our heads together

This sound a good idea but who is going to "police" the forum, i.e. ensure only bona-fide employees get to have their say? Also, it will only be a few who will have their say on the forum as many employees (perhaps the ones who need to be targeted for action purposes?) either do not have computers, are not aware of Pprune, or like many who are, have said that never go to Pprune because they are fed up of only reading moans and groans and exorbitant ideas for actions that will never take place due to the apathy of the work force at both companies!
Pprune is only a small piece of getting a message across. There has to be a way of getting the message to all staff of the problems that they will have to face in the future if they do not get their act together this year. Blow it this year and you probably will not have a chance like this for several years to come. The message has to be got across by all means possible.
Anybody thought of doing mail shots for each company? Still more effective that Pprune or e-mail at the moment!

Speedwing, I couldn't agree more. The message has to be got across to the majority not just the few. We should all spend more time canvassing our fellow workers, be it at home or in the workplace. We must get it right now, next year WILL be to late as we will have lost the impetus. If a forum will help, then so be it, however, I doubt that enough people from Bristow or Scotia visit Pprune to make it effective.
Keep fighting for better pay and conditions.

Yes any forum is good especially if it can encourage a united front. However, the real effort should come from BALPA, sadly with a declining membership in my company, BALPA is becoming a toothless tiger. Come on guys rejoin the union, lose that apathy, let your vote be known in ballots and let's take advantage of this unique situation they don't come very often.

It seems the idea is getting some real support.
Please, print out this thread and stick it on the notice board wherever you are (Bristow, Scotia / Aberdeen, Norwich, Humberside, Scatsta, etc)
Let's encourage people to log-in, and keep informed the old fashion ones that are not on the internet.
We have just a few weeks to get together and be a united front.
