Having viewed the hansard/transcript from this hearing I have only one question :
Bearing in mind that the stated aim of this hearing was to ascertain whether or not Jetstar had to keep its operation (flight operations, catering, maintenance, crewing) based in Australia to remain compliant with the act, why was AIPA the only body present representing pilots? ie where were the AFAP and JPC?
C'mon fellas, pick up your game, give your union a kick up the proverbial!!! THIS EFFECTS YOU!!!!!! You may have made yourselves the cheapest jet pilots in Oz, but for god sakes look at the big picture... dont think they wont jump at the chance to undercut you as well...
