headcone, how did the guys in other line stations ie bne,mel per drw etc not support the heavy guys ,a redline was ruled through 245 without any consultation and the alaea fought hard to save the jobs they could albeit at other line guys expense.along with half of the 245 guys who sat on their ass for two months took the cash and were happy to do so.most of these distinguished engineers have gone on to a life outside and are happy.some have gone to avalon or bne heavy as a means to keep their jobs.if we take your advice lets shut up shop rite now destroy aviation in australia and any future for ame,s or lames. come back walk the line i for one would be happy to see some of the guys return and take the cash,as a xmas bonus for a career cut well and truly short.
