Do you suspect they will give all their staff lobotomies so the wonderful Australian Airline culture is downgraded to the Indonesian version.
Not only would I fly with them, I may even apply for a job with them.
The main difference is that it will be funded by Rupiah with Indo input into management. Consider what we think or our current management and is that such a problem?
I can assure you that regardless of the nationality of my superior, I will not be operating any different to how I do now, and its an insult to believe any other pilots, engineers would either.
I thought they were planning on being a full service carier?
Much better!
