Chatting to a senior QF Captain the other day, both of us lamenting the ruin that has been rained on a once great airline. He commented that after today he may have to look for another job! At the time I thought he was being glib, but now I'm a little concerned.
Back in '94, or whenever, did the provision of a scope clause regarding seniority disappear? I mean can a fleet be liquidated without the requirement for redundancies strictly from the bottom of the entire pilot group?
I hope I'm wrong, but what may have seen to be unlikely (in the extreme) at the time, could result in a serious experience drain from a once proud airline. If it does come to pass, good one AIPA.
Not that Joyce, Clifford, or any of the board would have the capacity to truly see the folly in that!
Edit: Sorry for the thread-drift, just had another look at the title.
