A ‘No’ vote means nothing changes.

If AIPA is smart it will end up in PIA - that cost Qf a couple of hundred million last time, and then the FRMS issue can be sorted out properly.

A ‘Yes’ vote means the pilot body have once again agreed to massive concessions because they were asked for and also opened the door to multiple threats on multiple fronts. The floodgates will well and truly be opened on new entities being developed ‘de rigueur’ and anything new being only offered with multiple percentage paycuts.

For those living with their heads in the sand on the money front, if Qantas want this so much, why might that be?

No one with ANY understanding of long term jet lag and back of clock flying could possibly think this is a good idea.

I cannot for the life of me understand people here blaming ‘senior’ pilots for not caring because they have their Super! If you give away 60% of your earning capacity (and likely 20+ years of your life from truly horrific body clock issues) you will NEVER have any retirement much beyond a pension! But if that’s what you believe in, then go for it. It’s just very sad seeing future careers being sold down the river for a few pieces of (promised but never delivered) silver jets....
