Your posts are full of anti-mainline vitriol and you spruik Alan Joyce's words as if they are gospel. He is a manipulator of staff so that he can maximise his salary/bonus (he is not on a LCC CEO package). You sound like a "pawn" who is happy to deny your family a better lifestyle just to allow AJ to live like a king. The Jetstar pilots that I have spoken to, indicate that your views are definitely in the minority.
AIPA does not want to take over. Jetstar pilots would vote for their members (hopefully with bigger kohunas (& more independence from management) than the current JPC) who they want to handle the negotiations. They would enter into negotiations with all the industrial support and experience that has been built up over many years. The outcome will be much better for Jetstar pilots and does not involve mainline trying to take over.
