Thanks for all the great responses guys!
I can’t say so far I’ve experienced flying with one of these guys so far, just endless negative comments about Aussies referring to some grumpy old Captains.
I agree with the comments regarding following SOP’s properly and getting home safe. I have no hesitation to tell the other guy to pull his/her head in. On that note I’ve heard many positive comments regarding Aussies in this manner, we just get straight to the point! 👍
Having experienced an airline going bankrupt myself (much smaller than Ansett), the feeling of being ripped off or ‘that’s not how we did things at xxxx’ isn’t confined to ex Ansett guys.
