When it comes to bob katter and nick Xenophon, sure I know bob katter comes across as a bit of a looney, but that proposal of his for airlines operating domestically must have all flight and cabin crew based in Australia and 80% of maintenance done in Australia is probably the best job saver for Australians in the airline industry and I'm kind of surprised the unions aren't jumping on the band wagon and trying to show strong support for this. At least it would possibly help secure more 787 work for qantas engineers and keep more jobs here in Australia.
