That is not what’s happened. Mainline pilots want to be able to have beards. QF have always said that’s unsafe if you need to use the mask. The subsidiary pilots could have beards, in total contradiction to that “safety case”. When mainline pilots pointed out the double standard, QF decided, rather than discuss allowing Mainline pilots to have beards, that all QF group plots shall adhere to the no beard rule.
