Lamax - Thank you for your sage advice. Hows the aircon in the office?
Rex Pilots - Just a few points to remember
Mac @ir are gone. QLD is on LKHs ajenda. Its gonna happen. QL cant fill the entire void. They are gonna push north and need more pilots to do this.
A close friend of mine, who is a Rex F/A checks their crew on crewnet before going to work. At least half the time they have not crewed one or both of the pilot positions. They have an oversupply of pilots -
EBA scare tactic.
As for the checky who needs a hug. I heard a story about a socked captain who had to take a 30s bathroom break at an outport and (OMG)
didn't remember to put on his hat. The (need a hug) checky had it written on the official report. This moron should be more interested in imparting knowledge to the masses, not just being the "feared checky".
The best C&T pilots are there to make you better, not just there to glorify themselves and make you think - wow, they know their stuff. But these show ponies exist in all airlines.
Good luck to the Rex Pilot Group in their EBA negotiations
LKH has nothing on the crap that Dixon and his cronnies spun for the last decade
