The future of airline Maintenance in Australia

[Long Bay Mauler]

Just searching the net, and came across an interesting article from over 10 years ago.The statement that caught my eye states;

Its hard for the union to argue against outsourcing if an airline doesn't have the manpower to do the work

Is this the grand plan of certain airlines in Australia to decimate its engineering workforce?

Of course not. What makes the engineers think they're so special?

The grand plan of certain airlines in Australia to decimate its entire workforce, so they can all be outsourced.
