Correct me if I'm wrong Popgun, but aren't individual contacts a thing of the past. At least for large employee groups. I'm assuming this "B" Scale takes the form of a watered down EBA. Doesn't an EBA have to be negotiated? Doesn't the pilot group that is/will be affected by it have to sign off on it via a vote? By voting no, wouldn't Jetstar be prevented from flying these guys (NZ contracted) in OZ untill a resolution?
As far as I can see AIPA, the JPC, and the AFAP had them (mangement) by the B@lls! Or are there nasty little deals going on behind the scenes?
Please, someone enlighten us!
