Hardly a whistleblower. Much like the last infamous article. There no revelation of illegal practices.
Some practices could be argued as unsafe, they would have to be argued. If the company is compling with the regulations, then they can throw it back on CASA.
One of the posts earlier aludes to AIPA having the foresight to see what was going to happen in the future. If AIPA had such foresight, they would have tried to represent J* pilots form the start. And then steered the pilot body on the directon that would have been most beneficial.
As for the Buffalo crash and the fact that the pilots had slept in crew rooms and had been awake for X number of hours. How many Emirates pilots would like to live in Australia and still fly for Emirates. I bet a lot. But the job is in Dubai, not Australia. If you want the job, then move there.
You all moved for G.A jobs over the years, but now you are an airline pilot, you should only have to live in the city of your choice. You guys bitch and whinge about Gen Y, have a look at yourselves.!
As for pay, $17000 as a starting salary in the U.S, and yet plenty of guys lining up for the jobs. We got along way to go before we are going to win the wage argument.
Stop foreign workers being allowed to fly in Australia under the guise of 'tag' flights, and you will go along way to stopping BB and J* march.
