But as anyone in Flight Ops management from DT all the way down will tell you, it won't be flown under the LH award.
Yep I reckon they'll put it out to contract and be inundated by expats falling over each other to fly it. Most of which will be already be rated if it's a 777 or 787.
Then again, doubt Clifford would recruit anyone intellectually superior to himself or who would challenge status quo, so that is a big hurdle.
Interesting that the AFR has expressed similar sentiments about Clifford in relation to the hiring of Todd Sampson.
