good try d_concord (aka **** ******). TAAE is in good shape except the ex Ansett guys that joined want the same conditions as they had with Ansett and it won't happen. hence EBA negotiations have stalled, five pilots have joined Virgin and the usual bullsh!t rumours abound.
Buster, the A310 is still on schedule, only problem is there may not be any Perth pilots left to crew it.
dingo - will be on leave from CX in November. back in Perth on the 2nd see you at the OBH Sunday session then !!
