Yes, You're right.

Enough said.

While it's inconvenient to some people, let's get the FACTS correct, unless of course you have a problem with the FACTS distorting your FICTION ?

Sources, FWA

Cobham
http://www.fwc.gov.au/documents/agre...a/AE899048.pdf

Qantas
http://www.fwc.gov.au/awards/tracee/...f/AG891046.pdf

A Cobham B717 Mechanical (Dual) Engineer earns (base rate, no overtime, all shift penalties included) $103,554 + ($1,009.26 * 2 ) = $105,572 pa

Note, Cobham staff will receive a 4% pay rise on 01/07/14, their new rate will then be $109,795 pa

A Qantas B737 Mechanical (Engine / Airframe) earns $1,385.51 per week (base rate, no overtime, no shift penalties included)

Allowing an average of 40% roster-averaged penalties,
($1,385.51 + 40%) * 52 = $100,865 pa

Note, Qantas employees received a 3% pay rise on 01/01/14, included in the above figures.

Sorry if these FACTS do not match your FICTION.

Are your others FICTIONS as accurate as these FACTS?
