What's wrong with this thread?
Very bad professional manners and the individual lambasted on pprune.
Some QF fellows felt that the attack on them rather than their culture. Or maybe they just don't like critisism.
Frank, sometimes you can be lucky to miss out on an airline, though this not realised until years later. There are a significant number of pilots who missed out on their dream job at Ansett in the mid 90s. Some I know are Captains in Emirates, Dragon, Virgin Blue and F/Os in QF.
I have found that once in a career airline you rest on your laurels, where as a bloke still in the open market strives for opportunities. Most make it in the end, I must add being blackbanned does not help from what i have witnessed recently!
