You will find that it is VERY unusual for an Australian pilot to be working for AirNZ. ON the other hand AnsettNZ did employ pilots from any available source including kiwis. AirNZ over many years prior to recent events DID NOT employ pilots other than kiwis. Australians who applied never got a look in and No I did not apply and get knocked back but I know of many who tried and it was not because of any shortcoming on their part.
I am entitled to my opinion and you yours. The fact that you don't like it is your problem. And, by the way, you will get your kiwi who pretends to be our tourism minister back after the next election. Good riddance!
You have imposed on us for far too long and then you expect to spit in our faces. Well, the time has come to put an end to that.
Bye.
