Fed sec,
Good to see you around
Is the timing of the JQ JHAS news a coincidence in regards to the EBA?
I think not.
I don't think the broader membership wants to rip QF's balls off for huge rise.Just a firm squeeze.
Job security,decent LAME v AME numbers, respect, a rise to at least match inflation and or similar mechanism to give LAMEs a chance to progress thru the levels.
The bottleneck at the higher levels create a false wage maxima.

A fair share of training rather than see many QF LAMEs just wallowing and slowly but surely becoming skills/licence wise redundant.

LAMEs should not have to blow their holidays on type training.Some types cannot be bought.

Those that do go external should be paid for it especially when licence numbers are clearly short and the persons are demonstrably carrying out LAME duties bar the signature.Not fair.

Some want to see better staff travel benefits or a restructure of it.Some just want to be paid in lieu of it. Maybe a choice of benefit?
Some prefer the way it is but better priority would be nice.maybe f class upgrades?

Food for thought.
Good luck guys.
