Ohh thumpa, whats negative about it? I'm being very positive and optimistic about the future for aviation in Australia. With Virgin having 50 odd planes, great regional carriers like Alliance and REX expanding. Fantastic opportunities from STAR connections. Why would you want to go and work for QF? too old anyway.
We may end up going back to a two airline system here. With one carrier having a really high cost base and the other not, mmm who would that be?
What are the first things to go when competition kicks in and profits drop? wetleased aeroplanes and contract crews.
I'd be more worried about your own backyard thumpa, have you thought about applying for Virgin?
