And I guess if the captain is incapacitated on one of your long haul services you're down to an effo who probably hasn't been given a landing for 3 months.
That's the problem with some JQ pilots, you really have little understanding of QF's Long Haul ops and crew. I on the other hand know yours very well....
That 'effo' in your story would be over 15 yrs in QF, most likely have been a B767 or B737 FO for 5+ years and SO before that and GA/RAAF before that.
JQ promote to captain in under 5yrs
The last 2 SO's I flew with, one was ex RAF Harrier pilot and the other ex Ansett.
I know which plane I'd rather have my family in if the Captain went "incapacitated".
JQ has been needed for a roll in Domestic ops, no argument here. Allen trying to concur the would with the same model has been a joke and massive Revenue loss, regardless of what Evens says.
You'd have no MOU and no chance of a secondment in Jetstar if there are CRs.
Geez the QF guys were lucky JQ came along.
