Fwd CofG,

So you've never seen TL on a 777 roster? Never gone 60 days before getting a sector? When the next ER turns up will that make the ratio of longhaul to shorthaul on the fleet increase or decrease? Are we short of RQ on the fleet due increasing longhaul or way overmanned?

Not sure about 2011 but from memory plenty of guys in 2001-02 sent all their type rating info to CASA and got a P1 for their troubles. Long and drawn out process but it was endorsed on their licence.

I'm not saying the sim is better, just that the amount of time in the front seat for take off and landing may not be as different as some make out. Plenty of guys have done max 16 sectors a year while RQ on the 744, 777 will head the same way.

All commands are now in seniority but you gave up some incremental rises as a result. Brilliant. And 20% less? Only? You are happy with up to 20% less money for the same job? This will help our COS go in which direction?

Did you ask an A scaler about your package before you joined (if you're not an A scaler), would he have said the money's ****e, don't take it?

if you're a B scaler on here you have no right to slag off the new joiners on C scale, you did exactly the same thing.

Who in their right mind would join without a travel allowance? B scale

Who in their right mind would join without the P fund indexed? B scale

Need I go on? Guys join knowing what they are getting, let them be.
