Dear Friends,

I would very much appreciate you forwarding this e-mail from a friend of mine on
to any pilot you know with a request to pass it on to all pilots. I apologise that
some duplication will inevitably occur, but it would be nice if every pilot in the
world got this at least once.

Our dispute with Cathay Pacific continues. We are confident of prevailing, but any
assistance is welcomed. I am once again heavily involved on behalf of our Union and
currently I am the plaintiff in a Supreme Court action against CX over rostering.
Life is busy.

For those who are unaware, the ramifications of breaking an IFALPA recruitment ban
are quite severe. An individual would be ineligible for employment with a number
of airlines where the union has a say in hiring and would be ineligible for life
from being a member of any IFALPA affiliated pilot's union.

This ban is particularly important as CX is currently short at least 100 pilots and
soon to be short around 350.

Kind Regards
