Want to think long and hard about selling the farm in boom times.

Whilst it's an easy one liner to say it won't affect other types or I'm alright Jack it won't affect me, is so naive.

Especially as the 787 will replace both the 747 and probably most of the A330 fleet in time.

What happens if you get RINed off any other QF type to the 787? Think you'll keep your Terms and Conditions.

Extremely dangerous.

If we were losing 2.6 billion then perhaps a different story.

Qantas are trying to rush a deal before the full year results and profit upgrades as we profit from the full effects of a 50% plus fuel price plunge.
5000 people sacked, yields up, dollars down. Hardly crisis times. What's the share price now? 90cents?

Funny as for years they dragged EBAs on and on and on.

But perhaps they have seen the follies of the past, and just want to sign up their beloved and treasured pilots ASAP to make you all feel warm and fuzzy.

Alan loved you all along. He just wanted to see you commit self harm first.

Who's going to be the highest bidder in the race to the bottom.
