Hold on doomsdayers!!

There's alot of water to go under the bridge before 500 pilots are retrenched!! Think of all the retraining costs the company would incur..

All 737 Perth FO's,
Most A330 SO's
Alot of A380 SO's
Some SYD 737/767 FO's
Some MEL 737/767 FO's
A few BNE 737 FO's

This is a massive cost..one which the company im sure would rather avoid!!
Unfortunately, it will be necessary for action to be taken. My thoughts are that Joyce and his Morons dont think we have the solidarity to do it. I'm sure he will be proved wrong.

For all you Jetstar folks...don't for one second think you're immune/safe. As FSO/136 showed...you're only a few years behind us in finding yourselves in the same position.....

Interesting to see how this plays out in the media. The events of recent times are still fresh in peoples minds. I have no doubt it will also be made known that when punters buy a ticket on QF to cross the Tasman, thay are not flying with QANTAS pilots.....which is something many consider when choosing QF.
Unfortunately, I think QF will come out looking rather bad. Hopefully, Joyce and the idiots on the board will come out looking even worse. Time for a clean out.
