TCOB you are off the mark with the management wannabe / Wayne dig. Plenty of pilots disagree with the direction of ‘NEW’ APIA. The attacks against Jetstar are not achieving anything other than building up resentment between Mainline and Jetstar.
GD: So Chris, how is our plan progressing with the pilot body?
CM: Great, pilots have evolved into little groups, either attacking each other or ignoring each other. There is no positive talk going on, only more attacks and court action. They are either so distracted or worn out from continual dysfunction that they have lost sight of the big picture.
GD: OK, time to move into overdrive with operation shaft.
All this talk of using the Qantas sale act to limit the bleeding to Jetstar ignores the fact that we happily operated Australian Airlines for years over international routes. A dangerous precedent one would think. So while we are in the business of sticking it to the Jetstar international pilots, how about providing a ready supply of swords for the Australian Airlines pilots to fall on.
