Hi blow.n.gasket and breakfastburrito,
I am sorry to have offended you. It was not intended. My future also lies with QF so we are on the same side. As I tried to point out before, second officers have had the threat of retrenchment and/or taking flexi-lines whilst JQ continues to employ off the street. I am sure there are many SOs that would jump at the chance to spend some time with JQ under the MOU. I do not understand why management and the union don't push this, rather than have pilots excess to requirements. It will create some movement, engagement, opportunity as well as mixing the two cultures so there is less of a gulf. The lack of opportunity is demotivating and disengaging.
