Just wanted to add my FULL support to Joe and what he has stated and been willing to risk for OUR greater good. And from reading a few posts I’m not sure that some people realise that Joe was not just voicing his own opinion as a one man band, but rather acting in his role as a pilot Representative (which his article states at the end) for AIPA. I find it hard to see that under those circumstances he can be charged with a breach of the code of conduct whilst representing the voice of the Jetstar pilot group. If this is the case we can say goodbye to employees (who are an elected representative or the like) standing up and trying to fight for anything come EBA negotiations or any industrial related matter, without fear of losing their jobs. Fear and intimidation by a scared and spineless management must not be allowed to continue. We have the momentum and public figure now to fight for that. Let’s all get behind this!
