Captain Dart :
Perhaps if QANTAS long haul pilots had been just a little more 'involved' during 'that year' things would be different now
A few facts :
- I sit between one third and halfway up the seniority list at Qantas.
- I am an F/O on the B767.
- I was not a cadet.
- I am not overly young for my position.
To put it in perspective :
- I was in year 3 at primary school finger painting, learning how to spell and construct sentences during "that year".
Now take into account the number of 'A' pilots (ex Australian Airlines) above me on the list, and that really doesn't leave a huge number of pilots who stood by and did not get 'involved' in that year. By no means does it represent the majority of current QF pilots.
So do you think it is about time to bury the hatchet and get over who did and did not support you back then? Should we not be looking at what is happening NOW and what we can do to stop this nation's aviation industry from disappearing altogether?
