Spocky your attitude really disappoints me....

There are a LOT of very experienced FO's on the EJET fleet that have come from a jet background. The fact that we are penalised for having this experience is my only frustration with Virgin. Comparing paychecks with people on the 737 there is on average (with overtime) a 40-50k difference in salaries. Why are you worth that more than us?

Fact - no one can move from fleet type until a 30 month freeze period is served after check to line even though we have paid for our own endorsement!

I think the majority of us are pissed the fact that someone can start after you and by stroke of luck be placed on the 737 and be earning significantly more than there college.

This is a time for all of us to work together for a better outcome for ALL Virgin Australia pilots. I just hope your selfish attitude is a minority.

What would you be saying today if you were placed on the EJET rather than the 737?
