Skippers EBA
Will be interesting to see how this one pans out given the supposed wind down of the mining boom.
So for those over there in the west what is the word about the mining boom winding down? Is it happening or not? Have you noticed any changes?
During the boom I recall a sudden overnight increase when Network doubled their wages due to a mass exodus to majors. Long time ago now.

There's plenty in the union... Bit hard to negotiate when the company has no intention of even listening to what has been put on the table Its not a nice place to be!
Skippers use to be THE company, back in the day. I'm talking Ann Marie, Dave Kirk' days. It went down hill very quickly in 1995/6 and doesn't seem to have recovered....

Yeah...... You know Bob Hawke, right ?.... Well he used to have something to do with them until he........
........ Nah, the TWU are great, I guess...
.....aren't they?

Cheers. Yep recognised them from the ground dispute a few years back didn't know they did pilots. What sort of loss of licence do they offer. Went looking couldn't see anything there.
