China pilots to be punished for industrial action
Quote:
China better be very careful here. ALPA and IALPA may institute a ban on flying to chinese city's (just in time for the olympics) I would have to endorse/support that action. MS |

I cannot understand in this day and age how communism can still be accepted by the rest of the world. These poor people are basically gagged and trapped no matter how badly they are treated and punished for demanding better working conditions which I am sure pilots in other countries get.

Certainly the pilots can express their concerns/voice out using different channels, since this has been the wide spread phonomenon within China's aviation industry, but not putting those consequences to the poor passengers.
The punishment is believed to be more towards the pilots who refused to land the planes and returned to their original port, Kunming which resulted chaotic disruption to the airport. The problem on the pilot shortage (more aircraft to come in the next several years plus need to lure pilots from EK/EY etc) will last, and this was related to the fast growing economy, bad planning (knowledge on the planning people/decison makers) and others, the result chained issues. Imagine if this happens in Australia or USA, 18 flights took off then return, how the media will react to this, how about the public's voice? |
