No Sandy,

The policy is that no Woomera is employed in the Oz industry flying medium and heavy transports - B737/A320 upwards.

Events in the late eighties and during the last five years conspire to make this impossible due to the inevitable allegations of bias. This is a matter of considerable regret for us as there are some guys in the major company fleets who have written consistently and well over many years. If it was generally thought that we had a member of the Woomera clan known to be or even rumoured to be Qantas/VB or whatever the sledging would never stop.

Thus we avoid the problem and always have.

The only bias we have is for shift workers making their living with a licence or validations. Pilots, simulator folks, controllers and lames are our constituents. They are the reason the site exists - everything else is fluff and if we hit money problems I assure you the extras will disappear in a few keystrokes.

Regards again,
Rob
