Can someone explain why the Jetstar, QantasLink and other "related" pilot groups are not striking in support of their Qantas brothers/sisters? That would be typical here in Europe (more leverage) - why does this not happen in AussieLand?
Because when they asked for help years ago and told them what they could see happening in the trenches.
AIPA did not want to know

The domestic pilots were on our side but didn't hold much sway with the captains club on the other side of Sydney airport.

Although QLink are still in the air for now I saw the writing on the wall and left.

Good luck to the crews your just learning what the QLink crew have put up with for years.
I don't think things are going to improve soon.

BTW the rot set in with Dixon and Jackson, the Irish guy is just the idiot following a dream of Dixon. he doesn't have the background to think of this and cope.
