calcumalator nvfr & Section28-BE
RightO , we’ll start by restating JINCUNNUT and NITWITWORK - these are the accursed company entities not the employees that work for them. If you are as thin skinned as you take personal offence, BooHoo 😭 , you should not be passing uninformed comment here and perhaps this aviation game is just a little bit too tough for you !
Since 1995 starting with the NJS BAE146, QANTAS Mainline pilots have seen an dilution and erosion of company generated flying being handed to contractors who engage their fight crew on lower wages and conditions. This has had a significant affect on mainline pilot careers throughout the years to bring ourselves to a point when 18+year A330, A380 and B747 F/Os at age 40+ now have no real security of employment let alone ever realising a command in their working life time with in QF. Consider your position, be it in Network, Jetstar ,Jetconnect, Et-Al and you may have some concept of the serious and very real position within which these very fine aviators find themselves. They were subjected to rigorous entry selection criteria and qualified for selection into QANTAS in a very competitive environment. These are not men & women who are thinned skinned and were brought up in a generation prior to that of “every child gets a prize”
So, if you are going to make comment, be mindful of the very fine individuals who have been negatively impacted for 25+years by QF Exec management perusal of the LCC subcontractors and realise when I (we) speak of these contractors, we have absolute derision and contempt for the entity which is ENTIRELY different and separate from the employees of said entities.
