I reckon that pilots will have zero input into what QFs LCC is going to pay. It will be just likeQF or Australian back then, and AN post 89. They offered contracts, and if you wanted one you signed. No negotiation, no input, just sign or don't bother. Plenty signed and there was no shortage just as there will be no shortage for this LCC. Plenty of ex AN A320 pilots walking the streets, or workin OS and wanting to come home at whatever price.
Negotiate is a nice thought, but that's all it is.
Call this negative if you want, but how can pilots have any input? Thee is a job offer at a price, and you won't convince piolots to boycott because there isnt enough money in it. Human nature will take care o f the situation once again. You want to eat? OK, sign here.
