DM has hit the nail on the head.
Most don't realise what is happening, BUT if the internal coup gets inertia WE ARE ALL F*CKED.
AIPA or the AFAP must act prior to the 12th of Feb. I can not understand the short sight and absolute disregard for fellow man that is transpiring in the current coup. Thank f&*k we are not at war and these boys are 'SUPPOSED' to be watching your back. Never before has solidarity been so important. All you Qf boys with an axe to grind drop your axe and think with your head. Go to AIPA and push hard. With the current coup pushing the 44% YES vote to sign up as AWA contracts on the voted down EBA4 condition's and leaving the 56% NO vote a minority compared to the current AWA number of pilots..this has the smell of another '89 and leaving the NO voters a masssive minority in a Jetstar of AWA pilots. NEVER BEFORE HAS AIPA OR AFAP GUIDANCE BEEN MORE IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For now is the eve of the winter of our discontent (forgive the theatrics) If the ball is dropped now a long winter it will be. Already the 44% of no voters is gathering speed and very shortly will be offered AWA's on the voted down provisions. Time is short and there is so much to lose. FOR EVERYONE. For Gods sake put all the sh!t behind. All you QF guys that sympathise, call Capt Woods, All you Qf guys that dislike Jetstar pilots for what has been done in the past. FORGET IT for it will be a pleasant past memory compared to what to what the rouge percentage are trying to achieve by coverting from EBA pilots to AWA pilots on conditions that where voted down and it is a possible 44% of what was the collective bargaining strength of the Jetstar pilots.
