Jetstar New Hire Pilots (AWAs)

[Mr Al Coholic]

Good post Speeeedy.
I think you'll find most Jetstar guys don't hold a grudge for AIPA's decision 6 years ago. Its water under the bridge. HOWEVER, the active campaign to stop the expansion of Jetstar in the last 6-12 months (and International side of things, the 330's etc etc) by AIPA is seen as a shot across the bow of Jetstar pilot group. Most can appreciate that if you were a QF pilot, you'd be wanting your union to fight for you...sure, but then to expect to get the group on-side that your challenging, is almost a conflict of interest.
Anyway, you'll be happy to know that theres a lot that aren't happy with the JPC, and their lack of communication to the troops. I think it would be fair to say theres a 'good' chance there will be a changing of the guard next time around.
