Listen to some of you sad tossers ... you try to make it sound like Air NZ management went in there with this huge grand evil plan right from the start to shaft the pilots and leave you all high and dry. Even if that was the case, which it isn't, then it would have been Aussie airline managements that wrote the goddam book on how to do it ... or have you all developed selective memories all of a sudden?
Air NZ management is not without its share of the blame, but it's a shining example of glowing ethics and corporate responsibility compared to what you Aussies managed to do to yourselves only a few years ago.
