Isn't the talk about contract pilots redundant? I thought that with the AWA having being negotiated that all pilots, irrespective of whether they signed the "contract" or not, would now come under that agreement.

That contract would not have survived a first round encounter with the ATO. There is no way that anyone who signed it would ever be considered a contractor which would have left a lot of people having to find money that the ATO considers theirs.

I think you are spot on the money regarding Ozjet. The whole exercise seems to have been to create a company that has work on the books but low liability. The only reason for doing that is to make it attractive for investment.
