Listening to BB's response, leaves me with more unanswered questions:
1. In the senate inquiry, I was led to believe that J* had a very robust safety reporting system. Why is it then, that the first J* has heard of the fatigue report (Thai crew) was thru the media?
2. J* claim to have a "Just Culture" & Fatigue management system. However both have failed on this occasion. Do the service providers in Asia operate to the Just culture system"?
3. What has actually changed as a result of all the cabin crew "Oscar" reports, is fatigue being managed? Or are reports just filed away?
4. BB stated that AIPA wanted Qantas pilots in Jetstar jobs which is incorrect as per AIPA's claim.
5. Why is it that Jetstar employees feel compelled to go to the media as opposed to Jetstar management? Do they not trust the safety reporting system?
6. Didn't Jetstar learn from the "Toughen up princess" letter? More letters to staff bullying when reporting fatigued.
7. Does it not concern Jetstar, Qantas or CASA that they don't have "control" due minority stakes in their service providers?
8. BB stated he "encouraged" crew not to operate if fatigued. Should he have stated that J* don't permit as part of their policy any crew to operate who is fatigued?
9. BB response focussed on what happened to the crew after reporting fatigued. Why were the crew fatigued in the first place? Over worked / poor rostering / Long duties?
