Seemed important when you weren't getting your way Alan, what's different now you are? You have deliberately created a group of very "angry, fatigued and distracted" workers! Why is safety so far down on your list of priorities this time?
CASA.......Anyone home?
I agree in principle........ except it was a BS industrial tactic dressed up as a safety issue in order to get FWA intervention back then and it'd be BS (as well as the final straw) were they to do it now.
That said, were they to announce that 200 pilot jobs to go, I'd be very interested as to how they 'manage' that issue. It's been interesting flying with crew who are about to be demoted- though to their credit the crew concerned maintain excellent focus and standards still- and no doubt many of us are going to face more interesting challenges over the coming months.
I reckon there are WHS issues here shortly too as the mental well being of staff could be damaged through this process if its not managed well.
