I agree. No one aboard the QF32 last year or the QF30 the year before would have been thinking that the people doing the driving were overpaid. This is just drivel- in the public domain, sure, but drivel none the less.
It's important to stay on message. This is NOT about pay. When we start arguing about whether their figures on pay are correct then we make it about pay and we lose clear air for the Qantas flight, Qantas pilot clauses.
