Sounds like wishful thinking.
The Fair Work Act states that a bargaining agent can be an employee organisation that represents someone working under an agreement, a person designated by an employee covered by an agreement, or an employee covered by an agreement that has nominate themselves as a bargaining agent. QPA is not registered under the Registered Organisations Act and the AFAP do not have coverage of mainline pilots (yet), so neither of these organisations can represent Qantas longhaul pilots in the current negotiations.
