Gnadenburg-
I think you might find that any union "endorsed" industrial campaign is very difficult under the wonderful piece of legislation- WorkChoices. And under these new rules, "Work to Rule" is classed as industrial action, and so there cant be any imput from AFAP into this.
2 things though,
1)Not extending beyond CAO 48 is not classed as work to rule
2)If it is instigated by someone other than the union- then go for it.
Arrive at briefing right on signon, min op fuel when weather is bad, gas is up on Cavok, dont chase anything or anyone up with regards to loadsheets or refuelling etc, making sure every MEL is read carefully and understood completely on EVERY sector, no extensions, no answering phones when not required etc etc.
These things that senior management take for granted cannot be costed while we continue to do it. Only once the goodwill stops, will the full cost of what we do hit them. Fight the good fight lads!!!!!
