Yet another Strike !!!!

Reported on Radio Basilisk (Swiss Private Radio in BSL) this morning:

The re-vote of the Swiss Short Haul Pilots (ex. Crossair) has 93% of the votes asking their union to prepair a Strike !

But this could well put the pat amongs the ciegons, and about time too IMHO.

How "Gentlemanly", it gives all time to think and then fix the problem, rather than just acting. And knowing the Swiss that will mean that a theoretical compromise can be found that the Swiss Management can then break (yet again).

Just how long will this farce go on before the pilots all leave or starve to death - it is absolutly obvious to any bystander that the Swiss strategy is to get to the state where all flights are code share and run by other airlines - the world's first virtual airline.
