The agreement for pilots to return was enshrined in a deed by the AFAP and company. If that agreement falls apart, it’s only going to alienate and further anger previous experienced crew who intended...

New management are making smart decisions. They are in it to make money. While staff get screwed, they can at least be assured of a job and a future. They have previously spent 10 years...
