Bearcat

all I can say is that you are being screwed - none of the lads I know have that between them!!

By the way, dont need to play with toys - have too much fun flying for a living.

Pos-init, you are out of the loop. Give your AL buddies a call.

If Pos-init has any buddies, then they certainly don't work for AL. Otherwise, they don't know how to add up!
Suggest he stick to the flying instead of talking through his rear six!

Ah Lads - you are really letting yourselves down.

The numbers dont stack up. AL carries something like 8 million pax a year. If the pilots are doing anything like the numbers you are suggesting, then you are moving an awful lot of empty planes around.

Think about it

This is a bit off topic, but workformonkeys perhaps you should do something about these controllers who are not good enough to do their jobs. Dont you have a duty of care to the travelling public? Or are you one of these guys who will sit back, do nothing and then say I told you so when something goes wrong?

In paper today that Evan has given MOL 21 days to issue an apology for calling him a "failed aer lingus pilot" and to make a donation to charity. If he doesn't then he's going to sue him because he (Evan) "never failed a professional test in his life".

Good luck to Capt Cullen!

Rather liked this comment in todays Sunday Times:

“Discontent is never far from the surface at Ryanair, where workers feel mistrusted and mistreated,” said Ingo Marowsky, of the International Transport Workers’ Federation. “Once again, Michael O’Leary’s bombast and bullying has brought it bubbling to the surface. He is going either to have to accept the consequences or learn to behave like a civilised, 21st-century employer.”
