Whatever the truth or otherwise of your assertions about the quality of various pilots, you utter arrogance is breathtaking.
Take a look at your comments again.

"ex RAF pilots that civilian companies are lucky to employ."
If you truly belive they are superior, then I am truly worried, perhaps you got your speedpants on backwards or your bonedome is too tight, seem to be cuting of the circulation to your head.
Great pilots are found equally on both sides of the Civil/MIL fence.

We all know deep down that the RAF and to a large extent the Royal Navy supply a far superior product to the Civilian world than a cadet entry or DEP system

LF, I must say I pity you....as GODS gift to aviation (reminds me of the BOAC Captain going to heaven joke!) it must be difficult putting up with the rest of us!
Such a shame, as if you had joined Easyjet instead of BA you would have been Chief Pilot by now instead of floundering in the right hand seat of a Jumbo!
Anyway, we are being diverted from the original post by a bit of LF's bellyaching......
.......anyone shed light on why AS might have left and why Porky has chucked in the limelight which he seemed to crave for most of his career?.....is there even more trouble at mill?.... or are they just fed up being pawns?

Whenever I make the mistake of reading one of 'FlashFart's posts I start the same old debate in my mind.... ''Do we need more psycho testing of pilot applicants or does it just not work ?''

We've diverted somewhat from the topic of the post!
Does anyone know why both have decided to leave and who will be replacing them?
Is there trouble that some of us don't know about??

Stealey's gone for cash no doubt.
Bannister's gone because he is 55 and wasn't offered a management extension.
New GM Longhaul is Steve Sheterline
New GM Shorthaul is Dave Warner
New SM Shorthaul Robin Glover
GM Tech and training tba
BTSM
