RE: Air France pilots to strike.

I heard on the radio this morning that those guy are asking for 17% of salary raise.

Since they are already in one of the best airline of the world (pilot’s salary speaking) it sounds a bit indecent to me!

True, but performance degradation starts from the first drop.

Drinking whilst on the job….??? Could be a bit dodgy, all though I wouldn’t of thought that 1 glass would get them blind, drunken, pi**ed?

Slightly off topic but… did you know that up until a couple of years ago Air France pilots were allowed to have a glass of wine with their meals in flight!

I dont think they will be missed. Mind you I have nothing against the pilots on any airline I guess its just the bad experiences that I have had with Air France that I dislike them in general.
