I can think of plenty of QF guys who would take Darwin right now as they are otherwise facing losing their houses as they move into a second year of no income while Alan transfers flying they used to do to every man and his dog.
Its one thing to want to protect your patch, but another thing entirely to then sink the boot in after the fact and gloat like a pig.

OK what did I miss?
He's updated some info regards recruitment and indicates that type rated are currently being preferred, logical both operationally and $$ wise by Alliance one would think.
Personally don't think ignoring the fact there is a large pool of non QF pilots who wouldn't mind getting a gig as well - and some of whom are also probably in financial strife - reads too well, "yeah there may be others but....well, they're not Qantas pilots are they!!"
Can't see how he's "put in the boot" - hell don't think even a top end moccasin or the most luxurious slipper would be a reasonable analogy.
Cheers.
