There are clearly some management types on this thread trying to upset the apple cart. Have fun with them guys, during the LAME dispute 2 years ago when all was settled Kevin Brown made mention that the first thing he did at the end of each day was to log on to Pprune and see what was happening. I got the feeling he was losing focus from the things that really mattered like 1000's of passengers sitting around terminals costing them squillions as the LAMEs got their point across.
Just another thing to watch out for. I read a fair few comments and suggestions from good pilots about how to handle the press, what actions should be taken and other points about how to run a well prepared dispute that is predominently about job security. Some of the suggestions are well intentioned but fatally flawed because of certain sections of the fair work act. Be safe in the knowledge that your leadership team will make decisions based in legal advice and input from others with experience in such matters. Make sure you are lead by one General into this battle, if you all go seperate ways it will get a little messy.
