Having done the QF A330 conversion as well I would only rate it marginally better than the Alteon one.
At the time of purchasing the A330, Airbus introduced a new training package for the A330 which QF purchased. It turned out to be a dud and Airbus returned to its original package. As the board has not made funds available to purchase the other package, Qantas is stuck with the dud one (with some in-house improvements).


The particular pilot concerned is very unhappy about not being given a A330 command whilst QF MOU F/O's are moving right to left.
No need for further concern as a very senior source has said that no more QF pilots will be released under the MOU as QF cannot spare any more.
