Elektra,

Thanks for your prompt response to my post. I knew I wouldn't have to wait long.

Now, down to business. Which definition is me, or is it all? I may see you as a 'contemptible person' also. Did that occur to you? Probably not.

In answer to your question, I did oppose Dick Marman's position, but to no avail. I don't suppose you'll accept that, so there was no point in saying it.

Now, I am looking forward to my 777 position very much, and if it's not in Australia, then I won't accept. What are you going to do? Jump through my monitor and punch me? What a joke you are. I can't believe someone would make such a dumb threat. What would you have me do, give it up, and hope that they'll give it to someone who isn't qualified, or hasn't applied? Even dumber. Good men and women see it as my good fortune, and if I knock back a Singapore basing, then it opens up a spot for someone else, doesn't it? I'm sure there are a number hoping that I don't accept for that very reason. They don't dislike or disrespect me, nor me them, but they are realists. If they apply, are successful, and then choose not to be based in a location other than Australia, then that is their prerogative. End of story.

Stable Approach,

An unstable post from you. Have you been reading my mail? I thought the porno thing was my secret. Please read and digest the above para regarding basings, and how my possible refusal will open up a job for someone else - not for someone who is not qualified or hasn't applied however - just for one who has applied and has been successful.

I've never flown a chipmunk, nor do I wish to, but I did pop a few dozen rivets in an A320 in an encounter with severe turbulence once. I wrote it up.

Collectively, what you losers fail to accept is that the airlines were operating - Foreign pilots were thick on the ground despite the AFAP's assertion that none were here. About 30 in AN didn't resign, and that made a total of 80 available out of an estimated 300 required - better than 25%. Regardless of whether you are prepared to acknowledge it or otherwise, there will always be people who didn't vote for or support the cause. Would you expect them to sit on the sidelines and watch their jobs be consumed by someone else, probably a foreigner.

Another small point I draw to your attention is this: Many who hurl abuse in these forums are now working overseas, sucking the guts out of their economies, on super salaries, as KM acknowledges, taking commands in front of local FOs and you have the nerve to criticize! Is it any wonder you totally lack credibility?

This was covered elsewhere recently when these same pilots, particularly KM, criticized SQ for suggesting they may fly domestically here. It was pointed out to him that in a micro manner he was doing exactly the same, i.e., sucking a living out of a foreign country, and taking the profits home. Oh, of course, that's different. How silly of me.

Downtheback,

How disappointing that you didn't respond so promptly and tip a bucket on me. Two out of three ain't bad though !!!

Let me say it again fellas, just in case you didn't understand - Life's a $hit sandwich; the more bread you have, the less $hit you have to eat. Understand??

I'm shutting down now before Elektra flings himself at me through my monitor.
