Hi all,
As you may of heard Fair Work Australia will be conducting its first annual wage review for 2009-10. I urge all fellow GA pilots to make a personal submission stating: Pay conditions, cost of living and cost of pilot training etc.
As per current AFAP award many pilots around Australia are still being paid close to minimum wage. If justification and pressure from submissions can be made there may be a chance for change in the industry. Details below:
