Agreed. Many of the junior pilots in QF have not experienced an expansion. When the 767 first arrives with an order of 7 in 1985, the original reports from the bean counters were disappointing. Many pilots felt that the stagnation of the previous decade would continue.
History records differently.
The Company will put the first 787 on high yielding routes on which they will be very profitable. More will follow in quick time and Qantas will expand.
