I think AIPA have been lobbying the QSA point for a lot of years, its not new.
The thing that galls me is this idiot is the CEO, this is what he gets paid the big bucks for, so go and sort it out yourself, I wont be lobbying my local MP, this is what managers and all their entourage are paid for, I simply fly, and if the joint goes under so be it, I'll move on, pretty simple really. I mean who flies 747 jumbos on 7-8 hour sectors to Asia, even slave labour couldnt run a profit on those fuel guzzlers, the QF mainline has been neglected for so long its just a joke at the moment. (Oh I forgot you can shut 1 engine down during taxi, that should save 50kg or so on an 80 tonne burn to Asia) Or he could get Boston Consulting to advise him, thats what he does for everything else...
