What’s about to happen @ QF is a national disgrace. Its been bad enough flying to LHR the last few years with all the foreigners down the back, whilst the words “The Australian Airline” are proudly painted on the nose. Joke! I hope the unions can keep this issue alive in the media and perhaps pressure GOD to rethink. Record profits, but we can no longer afford the kind of people that assisted in producing that profit. Great culture GOD!!!

In anycsae, now that QF is an Asian airline, I recommend flying SQ (better in-flight entertainment system).

There’s no way in hell you will get all staff to go on “general strike” and stick it out. GOD knows it as well. One thing we are good at in Oz Aviation (post ’89) is taking a right old shafting and loving it. Just look at the monkeys @ Jet*, flying a A320 for the same $ as a EFIS DC-9. Sadly the accountants have us all well and truly bent over in this country.
