National Jet Systems started operating the BAe 146 Australian Airlines in 1990
National Jet Systems was sold to Cobham in 1999.
in late 2019 Advent bought Cobham, which includes NJS.
recently, (like 2 days ago) we discovered Qantas bought NJS, a small pRt of Advent/Cobham.
NJS began operating BAe146 for Australian Airlines (now Qantas).
Qantas made the decision to change from 146 - 717 in 2005.
Through those changes pilot conditions were determined by their current agreement.the conditions will be as per your current agreement. You may notice a slight change in format on your payslip, nothing else, it will stillsay National Jet Systems!
Initially AWA now the current EBA.
NOTHING has changed for the employees except the owner Advent - Qantas and hopefully a little more security. You were ALWAYS employed by NJS!
People dreaming they will be fast tracked to mainline are doing just that “dreaming”.
the best template is Network. Look at their progress and you will probably get an idea of the NJS progress, minimal at best.
In the future, yes maybe changes. COVID may/will create the biggest opportunity for more or less aircraft.
As far as conditions are concerned, look at your current agreement, that’s what you agreed to with NJS. You are still employed by NJS,
as for other entities taking NJS jobs, can’t happen.
