Typical of all Australian Management.

The 787 fiasco will probably be the sad end for QANTAS .

Interesting that the ALAEA Fedsec does not comment on this thread must be because they got done over by Qantas / FORSTAFF on this EBA.

Lightbulb Slow Learner

I must be a slow learner....I still have words ringing in my ears from yesteryear like...

Avalon is only there for a cabin reconfig....
Avalon is only there for in seat video mods.....
We are only testing outsourced landing gear overhauls.....
We are only testing resprays being done in China.....
Its only overflow maintenance being conducted short term in Avalon.....
The long term schedule sees more heavy maintenance coming to Sydney....
Of course you will get opportunities with Jetstar when it begins....

They seemed to be about the same times we heard....

9/11 has seen large airlines like Air Wisconsin going out of business....
The share price will hit $5 as part of this initiative......
SARS will cripple the airline industry for years to come.....
Bird Flu has reduced our competitiveness....
Would you like to move to Brisbane on a reduced wage....

This years excuse is fuel prices huh???? Well at least its new.....Oh....hang on....no its not....Or maybe I AM a slow learner.....

Now it's the 787 - the game changer.

If only we bought planes that needed no maintenance.

Now to quote the fat controller "these A380 will need no maintenance in fact they will fix themselves". Wrong......
