Hi,
I use to work for DJ, and i enjoyed the time i was there.
The choice of the 'EBA team' astounded me, as there was only one person who I knew of that had qualified negotiation skills, with a background.
That was the first mistake made in my opinion.
Has anyone checked against whats being proposed with the CASA CARS and CAOs.
Duty time etc which Casa hold standard are in there, of course dispensation can be sought by DJ for their needs.
I have helped negotiate 2 ebas at DJ and hearing all this talk on here it seems that some people are not up for change, let alone open to ideas.
I am not saying that DJ are saints in this process... like any business you need to make money, hold onto money... and inturn the crew need to realise that the market that you work in is a little different when all we had was legacy airlines. Standards need to be kept, held high. Some things can be thrown out.
Give and take is important, and i do hope that fundamentals of flying both pilot and crew are all listed in the CASA regs.... go have a read
good luck!
