JJW, you make several references to Australian Airlines ( the original one) as AO. Anyone who has been around longer than 5mins knows the correct designation for that airline was TN.
AIPA was extremely generous with the TN pilots, agreeing to the Y list which gave them future opportunities that they would never have had, if Qantas hadn't bought the airline.
As for your assertion that AIPA's motive for coverage is to remove Jetstar pilots from wide body cockpits, well thats just laughable. Anyone who thinks that will happen is far removed from reality.
Are you suggesting the JPC have furthered the interests of JQI pilots, with that third rate agreement they're on?
