Here is where you are wrong Chim Chuck. It does and will not just QF drivers but all pilots in Australia- no matter what the result.
I agree. Set a bench mark and it affects many near and far.
I recall on these pages years ago, pilots stating the conditions of service they were accepting wouldn't affect anyone- the Virgin Blue driver paying for his endorsement or the Impulse 717 pilot working for bugger all.
Mesh the two and you have the situation now! Pilots paying for their endorsements and being paid a low wage.
But it doesn't affect anyone!
