Interesting...........any union is only as strong as its membership and a strong union is usually more of an anchor than an engine.
Look at the baggage handlers for instance.
I've never been a member of a union and never required ones assistance. Just lucky I guess but I don't think it is a step in the right direction at all.
Sorry but Bill Kelty is too fresh in the memory for mine.
The only union pilots in Oz need is to stop prostituting themselves.
