Post National Jet admits admits unsafe planes due to oil fumes

NJS sacked the senior base flight attendant in Perth 3 weeks ago. The FA had complained about the overwhelming work load of running the base - a job that is now done by 3 FAs!!! After appeals for assistance to all her superiors she wrote to the MD. The MD immediatley terminated her for a variety of changing excuses.

The FAs letter and the NJS letter of termination to the FA have leaked out and are circulating. It seems people in Adelaide are as appalled at the stupidity as the real workers.

The NJS letter to the FA states:

“we cannot confidently and absolutely guarantee that no cabin air contamination will occur while you are on board a 146 aircraft. We are not prepared to risk compromising your health. Accordingly the 146 flying option is no longer available to you. . .As a result, you are hereby notified that your employment is terminated due to redundancy of your position.”

No more "alleged fumes" and "alleged contamination". It is now out in the open.

*Take care *******, we are all on your side*
