One would have to question who is being stupid here. Qantas Engineering LAME's are not 'going slow', and it is not unofficial. We are following a strategy in pursuit of a fair and reasonable renumeration for our knowledge and skills. The action has been legally sanctioned by the AIRC, which provides a bit of protection from Dickson and his henchmen. At present, the only action we have taken is to ban overtime on our days off. If aircraft are being delayed that is because Qantas doesn't employ enough engineering staff to safely prepare all aircraft prior to flight. The problems that you and passengers face arise from managements actions, not LAMEs.
