What would it matter anyway?
Two things that Australian pilots have done since the advent of Virgin Blue- they have taken away the two most important supply & demand factors.
1) Attrition. If you are expensive to replace, they will pay to keep you.However, J* &
VB pilots have paid for their training so they are inexpensive to replace.Hence, attrition means little!
2) Experience. If airlines get away without relying on experience, it opens the gene pool to all and sundry. If an airline such as Virgin Blue or J*, go through expansion phases, and get away with upgrading inexperienced pilots relatively quickly, it won't auger well for remuneration.
Consider this with point one and anecdotal evidence of the standards at Australian LCC's, and you have the parlous state of affairs for pilots in Oz!
Qantas pilots will deliver this one on a platter to the taxman- and why wouldn't they?
