Remove the bloody curfew - not likely as one pollie will ensure this never happens while he is transport minister. Ultimate was when unions were slow baking Qantas, you would board at 8.00pm for a nice run up to Brisbane. After countless tech problems, PF worried that there are not enough blankets aboard to cover an on board terrorist incident etc etc ad nauseum you would finally get roll back at 10.55pm and engine (1) started, which I understand allows a takeoff after 11.00pm but still pings the company the fine. But hey, what else do you expect? Wonder if a new fed govt will/would change things? Not bloody likely in my view.
