Close Qantas down and start afresh!
Together with the other QF thread, all we hear is all the whinging and whining. Face it; most aussie pilots are very insular in outlook with unbelievable self delusional self possession disguised as self belief. Their small theatre of operation with overly conservative operational practices lead to the delusion of great safety; nobody outside of Oz is easily fooled except for the small minded insular aussies who are kept in awe with those chest thumping self proclaimed sky gods.
The time has come for all national flag carriers to embrace total globalisation with open skies, open hiring, etc.
