Re Manuals

Jetstar have issued nearly all manuals in a binder A5 size. The only manuals issue on cd have been Airbus Fcom manuals. These manuals are available in paper format in every aircraft and every crew room. Some new recruits expressed they would like a paper copy of the Airbus Fcom manuals so the company has offered to supply one at a good price deducted from pretax salary. Most airlines around the world generally only supply CD electonic manuals for the airbus these days in pdf format. Much more cost effective for airbus and the airlines. The paper amendments were a pain in the arse to say the least.
Look at casa. Most air leg documents are available on the net or electronic means and amendment service.
Just because Australia and the red rat are playing catchup you have the audacity to criticise Jetstar with adopting a modern recognised approach.
The crap that goes over this site make me sick some times.
