Qantas Longhaul is about to start and can expect a rough ride.
Going it alone has not worked for any of us and with the recent change to industrial rules against us we only have one hope.........we MUST unite under one common banner.
It can be done with a peak body (AFAP??) and sepearte sub-divisions (QF, Virgin, Jet* etc) it just an administrative process. As a united group we can stop employers playing us off against each other and driving our profession into the gutter.
Without unity we are doomed!!
You have it all wrong.
You are looking from the top down. Fix GA and you will never have to worry about the top, it will look after itself.
