No surprises here.

TL email worded in such a way that H141 was given up due to a lack of "planned" maintnenace as identified by MOC.

Reality says something to the effect from senior management, J* need a wide body hangar so make it happen, VIC guvinmint giving us $$$$ to make it happen in MEL so see to it that that wide body hangar doesn't add up for QE MEL to keep it.

Don't mind so much as a strategic business decision being made at our expense, hey it not our train set after all, but being blatantly bullsh1tted to in person by a new manager just weeks after his appointment doesn't bode well for the future.

Guess the ex MEL heavy guys know this all too well!

Last time I shake that koonts hand!

The hundreds of jobs created are in management and cabin staff training not engineering as 787 does not require maintenance as AJ says.

Has Jetstar been given the use of the wide body hangar only?
Or have they been given a narrow body bay as well?
In Melbourne.

From my understanding they have emptied out the wide body hangar. All previous Qantas wing docking is gone.
They can now fit one wide body or multiple narrow body in the hangar.
As yet, they have NO access to the Qantas hangar 101 (narrow body). But give it time and that will surely change.

Not good for NTL

There was an announcement that they are giving JHAS the big A at the end of the year and A320 A Checks will commence in the hangar with the help of Korr. Can't be looking too good for the troops at NTL.

So narrow body bays 4 and 5 will be given to jetstar?
Were the heavy maint tail docks modified to accept A320 in early 2013?
And how many of the KORR guys, who got a free A320 rating a few months ago, are going into the Qantas hangars for Jetstar? 4?

Fruitloop,

If you can show the regulation under the old or the new system regarding the number of contractors "allowed" to be utilized by a company it would be appreciated.

A link would be good.....
