Tartare: Most Qf drivers could increase their pay by going to the sandpit, any number of other places or (in certain circumstances) even Jetstar.
It is the ultimate Qf spin that Qantas pilots and engineers have priced themselves out of the market.
I for one have my exit visa stamps and there are many others - to the tune of more than one a week for the last year -MORE than one- and out of a total pool of some few thousand that is a lot.
If it were that good, why would anyone be leaving?
Answer - it is NOT good and people aren't just leaving, in many cases they are leaving aviation altogether, and further, they are being swamped in the rush....
The business has been all but destroyed by self aggrandising incompetents paying themselves millions at the expense of a once wonderful company.
They should be criminally liable.
