same crap different thread. Qantas staff whinging they are getting shafted by the system that they have helped to create. Don't hate the player, hate the game. You all don't care if you are taking anyones jobs. Didn't see anyone helping out the ansett guys. Boo too to you.
As for the 717, excellent aircraft that can be applied to many routes in Aus and will fit a good hole between the Dash 8 & NG.
