In the dummy spit of the year the CP has thrown his rattle and dummy out of the management pram and resigned from AIPA.
In a show of solidarity other management types have also headed for the AIPA exit door.
IMO this is a very good thing. It was always a conflict of interest. At least we dont have to politely ask them to leave at meetings now.
Also, AIPA members would be well served to ask some questions about the reasons involved with the legal counsels departure.
In particular check out what the previous administration signed into effect just before they handed control over to the ARG.

Hey Knuck,

Some of us are interested in what goes on in other (but closely related) pilot groups. We are all faced with the same problems, and it's interesting to see what you are up to.
I was not a fan of the legal counsel, however it sounds as though things were badly handled.
In my opinion the whole ARG thing has now a good chance in turning into a can of worms, which is a shame as there were some very good people on the ARG who I'm sure would have worked hard and done well for the QF pilot group.
I'm afraid the president and his secratary now have a very big question mark over their heads, at present their silence is deafening!!!!
Not to worry RaTa, I'm sure we'll all get some 'spin' to make us feel better and them look good again before too long!

What's that old definition of a Qantas pilot?...
a bloke who marries a prostitute and drags her down to his level!
Seems appropriate to me! :p :ok:

I would think that would be quite an insult to 99.9% of Qantas Pilots. What exactly do you mean?

Amos enough! Is that the best Woomera can do, and not even remove the post.
Many of us may not be fond of the w**ker attitude of many QF pilots, but that was a bit over the top. And particularly from a former AN pilot, Bob.

Knuck,
That's charming esp after your PM! :ugh:
Worry about your own backyard.
Perhaps if you had helped out in the Impulse pilot's backyard (just over the fence from your backyard), you guys wouldn't be in the predicament you are in now.

Well the good news is that, whilst the little 2 year old tit-for-tat comments keep going about who has done what to who in the past, we keep reminding ourselves of why the race to bottom is still on, and will keep going, till we not only achieve it, we will probably kill ourselves to over-achieve it.
Well done.

The CP has explained his action to the pilot group.
The action of AIPA becoming part of the ACTU may be something to do with it. Nobody asked the members what they thought.
Wait for the day the ACTU try to create a national strike day over some political event they don't agree with, in support of their Labor bruvvers. Will AIPA join in?
I'd like to see them try it on the AIPA membership.

Blue,
Ignore the past and you're history. We're looking to you guys for leadership. How about showing some instead of continually sniping. United we stand, divided we beg.
Besides, I haven't been tit-for-tatting for two years, only a few days.
