When Alan Joyce grounded Qantas back whenever, the first person to drop me a note was a Virgin friend who'd been through the dispute, an overseas stint with a very young family and then the collapse of Ansett. It was a kind, considerate thought from someone I've known for years but only catch up with occasionally.
Now once again the airline world is in turmoil and I think you'll find that, apart from a few posters here on Pprune (and on the whole that's not many QF staff), most Qantas people want to see the Virgin staff retain a job and an employer. Many of us have friends & family who are Virgin staff.
The few on here that openly appear to want to see Virgin collapse are just that……a few.
