So the Chinese could be looking for a few pilots on Australian bases then? And CX announces quite a few PER basings (yes Anotherday I know it is to make up the numbers). But isn't the timing interesting? Plus we get to get rid of more of that expensive hedged fuel for them when we compete with the mainlanders for flight levels.

Just read the latest whinge and for what it's worth I've heard it all before, including 'We are fighting for our survival' in the late '90's. It had started with Red Oddington early in that decade, and the broken record has been playing ever since.
