...And in due course the Jetstar aircraft will be maintained by Thai engineers in Thailand and flown by Thai pilots who will perhaps overnight occasionally in Australia.
It's a really good business model isn't it? Masquerade as an Australian airline, trade on the Qantas reputation for safety and service that was built by generations of Australians, but minimise the number of Australians employed in favor of using cheap third world labor wherever possible.
Meanwhile, tell the Government it must restrict access to Australian aviation markets in the interests of keeping Australians in jobs.
Some may call it brilliant, I just call it fraud.
