If you click on the SMH link on the article in the opening post, then it becomes apparent that either a cash strapped Fairfax media has found a lot of money for a production company or that more likely this piece is a paid advertorial, which means that it was signed off by Jetstar management. Which brings me to the following points.

Firstly, the article specifically mentions quotas wrt increasing female participation and;
Secondly, that Jetstar are happy to exploit their female staff for advertising.

It's also interesting (well no it's not but I couldn't be bothered with a segue) that "orange future" is a handle made up entirely to use obfuscation to keep up banter in order to keep this thread at the top of the page. (As we've seen, when no one responds to orange future, then they respond to themselves in order to goad people into a response). We know that orange isn't a Pilot and they have very little knowledge of the industry. Make up your own minds about orange future's motivation here, but the good news is that you can kill off orange future by not responding to someone who's trying to keep an advertorial alive.
