Lets have some facts here. When JQ started up there was a lot of animosity, when JQ pilots were up the track after going OS, they were seldom invited to join QF pilots for a drink or a meal, in fact both groups kept to themselves. Some Skygods took it upon themselves to be quite derogatory, and their favorite theme was "so you failed QF entry"? This had a effect on my family personally when my son (JQ) met his sister (QF) at the crew bar in NRT. A couple of Skygods took it upon themselves to give my young bloke a bagging, whilst he is more than able to defend himself, they did not take into account his sibling who flew right into them as only a female can do, our "hero's" quickly left as they realized they had taken on more than they could chew. Thankfully that has now changed, but the older JQ pilots have not forgotten. You all need each other, its the only chance you have against management, the remarks of some show things still need to change.
