Qantas will get cheaper pilots,because part of the pay deal is residency. What Qf will get away with 'paying'is more a question of what value
Are pilots recruited from overseas not covered by the Qantas EBA?
If not then what is the union doing to address this?
If they are hired under the same EBA as local pilots then they will not be cheap, especially given the administrative burden for offshore visa entrants.
