Seriously, do you have to just be critical of something so trivial. Grow up. Not wally related to the topic, but I bet you are a kiwi hater too...

Thanks for your well considered replies. Ad-astra, I must say on initial reading of your first post, it came across in a way that led me to draw the conclusion that I did. After you have clarified exactly why, I understand and I do apologise. It is a frustrating matter for all, and I do now see your side of the equation. As for whether there are enough in VANZ who want it challenged, I can't say. Considering the circumstances, it does sound like an 'all in' approach if they do challenge, with the possibility of coming out the other end empty handed.
Voz1, some great points. I understand that this all shouldn't have been part of contract negotiations but I'm certain the company knew what they were doing when they handed it over to the unions. Sort it out amongst yourselves perhaps, without upsetting anyone from their end.
Given the stagnation in pilot turnover on both sides of the ditch, I think we are all hoping VA is a career company. Australian operations are certainly shaping up to be. As for NZ, we all hope so too, although it's now up to the company to decide.
