ACMS,
I find your post 39 very revealing. As I was reading the thread the question a thought entered my head "I bet he is Australian" I then chided myself for making such an assumption, then I get to your post where your tone was viscious wounded and nasty, bullish and with an implied threat regarding giving jumpseats to OZ to anyone who challenges you. The fact is I believe many pilots who joined CX would not have had the required experience to join KA. Those guys have also done their time and had their challenges. The WE BOUGHT THEM, hyperbolic crap is immature.
I never really had an opinion about Australians until I came to HK and was shocked at meeting not all but a significant number of Australian Pilots. You refer to the very sad chapter in Australian Aviation and your role within resulting in you loosing your job. You then refer to Scabs.The loss you had was very traumatic but like it or not there are other perspectives on what happened around that time. From a neutral perspective it may not been all seen in the same light you project. The "pain body" of many of you guys carry around while understandable is actually very distructive not only to you but to many others. To even use the word scab about another individual is inexcusable as is threatening and bullying. That "f**ck everyone because I was hurt "attitude is childish and when a group feel that way it is dangerous.
With such an attitude you leave no other choice to a mgmt body except to treat you like crap.
