Somethings gonna give soon...
O.K lets look at Australian aviation from a distance. Things come and go in waves, and usually have 10 - 15 year lapses.
If people in AIPA and AFAP can't smell the fart already... then they must be pretty stupid. Read these forums. All we're hearing are terms like 'T&Cs'... 'EBA'... 'Pilot Shortage'... I'm now reading about pilots taking action; who are prepared to take matters into their own hands.
IMHO, the balls have been bowled but the pins haven't dropped. Howard, I'm backing you up mate.
If it wasn't for us
pilots, there wouldn't even be an industry. We
are the backbone. Based on this small fact, no matter how much time or money or energy it takes, we should and could keep pushing the fact that we can take action, and nowdays hopefully some of these idiots realize the power we potentially have. I'm so excited about what's going to happen in the next few years.
