"Before AIPA can be considered genuine in their attempts to unite the Qgroup pilots it should consider a name change- the I in AIPA I would suggest, is not relevant to a large number of J* Eastern,Sunstate or QF S/H pilots."
permFO,
The "A" in AIPA refers to Australian, and the full title is Australian
& International Pilots Association. Hence the pilots you refer to (who generally fly within Australia) actually get first mention!!!! "And" being the key word !
Pedantic I know, but the title is all inclusive and doesn't just refer to long haul!
