Why can’t/ won’t they do it? And what if
anything can we do about it?

If we can’t do anything about it, this vote really comes down to outsourcing or not outsourcing does it not?

Well the company has said they are able to start a separate entity.

The Union (I assume right now) is getting professional advice put together on the legality/likelihood of the operation which should be used in order for them to make their decision as to what guidance they give by early next week.

It’d be best to wait until then, assuming clear guidance is given and not some attempt to wash their hands of this situation.

However the company is quite adamant they can start this operation. That any form of PIA won’t affect it. They surely won’t have a problem attracting Aussie expats back home. The public wouldn’t know/care that the pilot flying them isn’t on the mainline seniority list.

So yes, if the Union come back saying “there’s really nothing we can do”, the vote comes down to doing the flying or outsourcing it.
