I would like to thank you all for the input you have made here. As someone from the opposition and smaller brother I have gained a fair bit of what the attitude is in regard to this EBA. I have read all the updates as well.

To me, as someone who has built up a significant amount of flying experience, it is quite disappointing to see how pilots fight over one thing. It is seniority. What a frigging joke.

Choosing to be a pilot in Australia really is a **** career choice! Virgin Australia was the featured 'golden child' for job choice over the last 3-4 years. I can say though, now as the company matures and growth declines, pilot opportunities will also decline in rate of turnover and therefor promotion.

Just remember one thing in this country for those younger pilots. It doesn't matter your performance. Just be lazy, get a pass only, get onto a seniority lis as early as possible and pay for it as much as you need to!

Well done boys and girls. You deserve this debate!
