Your Longhaul bretherin will be taking the pain, finacially and mentally, to secure ALL futures in QF mainline.
Angryrat, take a breath, the shorthaul pilots in Qantas have been taking the pain for the last two years, with the loss of flying to J*,jetconnect and with putting surplus pilots on the 737the divisor has fallen by as much as 20-30%, and as the pay is basically purely based on this its a 20-30% drop in pay. Remember the min pay divisor for the 737 is only around 53 hours, not the 80 longhaul pilots enjoy. Shorthaul will be doing exactly the same as you in a years time, so start focusing on the real problem, not your fellow pilots.
We want to make sure that the shorthaul operations isn't the last part of qantas to be crewed by australian pilots!
