Anton,

Please stop with your constant tirade of "CRM..CRM..CRM". BMI pilots have no reason to feel like scum. Nobody is making them feel like this, so maybe they don't actually feel like this?

Anton,



I think it's the opposite. It's BA (CC) saying to BMI "let's talk now before it's too late".

True and one thing we can all be sure of is that if there's any merging of seniority lists it won't be next month! Maybe next year, so if you're joining this year then it shouldn't affect you.
