Where it effects a company like QF, is the cabin crew where you have mainline crew, and QCCA etc working together on the same aircraft on different wages and conditions, as that is the same as the A/B situation as above.
So what about the mainline SOs? These days you can have two of them sitting next to each other on vastly different salaries
