Uterus, it's not hard to ascertain that YOU are one of the few who has scored a job with TESNA, and that Flying Tiger has provided a salve for your stress, lest you also find yourself on the unemployment scrap heap!. .Please Ctrl+c then Ctrl+v the references in the posts on this page to 1989, and post them for us.. .Superficially, Flying Tiger's post would appeal to the 2-3,000 employees who resigned from Ansett to secure a guernsey with TESNA (and no-one is wishing you ill), however, to the other 10,000+ who DON'T have a job offer the post merely highlights the complete disregard that the 2 M&M's, FLEW,and the ACTU show for their welfare. . .It's a deal worth millions - and guess WHOSE $$$'s are being used in the gamble.......none of the preceding 3!!!!!!!!

PFO, you MUST be joking - surely - when you say that Sir Reginald Ansett lost control of his airline to people {Abeles and Murdoch) better able to manage it <img src="tongue.gif" border="0"> - THEY were the first stages of rot to set in, to what was a healthy, non-debt, fully owned company.. .Another fine example of a pilot-owned airline was Hazeltons. Have a look at where IT is today!!. .You and Zone 5 might like to take a walk around Bankstown, Essendon, Archerfield and Jandakot one of these days, and count the number of SUCCESSFUL charter and commuter operations managed by PILOTS.

No-one has said that pilots are great businessmen - have a look at some of those 60 year olds you're flying with, PFO (the "motelier", the Gold Coast taxi driver) - however the track record of management success in the airline industry, worldwide, over the past 10 years is pretty much one of dismal FAILURE!!
