Heard the same from our end to... The J

....but think of the benefits. If true, you can go back to school and improve your grammar & spelling! Win Win!

Jetstar pilot.
Before counting the $ with your Q job, how about using a simple dictionary app etc.

He's a low cost version of a pilot. Not fitted with all that expensive 'English spellin' and writtin' stuff'.


Jokes aside J*pilot, you really do yourself a disservice with your atrocious grammar. I doubt Q pilots could teach you anything. An English teacher on the other hand.....

(I know the arguments against using correct grammar, however, they come from those too lazy to learn).

Jetstarpilot,

Hey mate, I found your post a bit obtuse. Sorry about your 787 conversion, but could you please shed some more light on why the course was cancelled? Plus why you managed to extrapolate the reasoning to be "Q jocks wun yet again"?

We've been briefed that both companies are required parts of the whole entity, & if one grows the other won't suffer. Jetstar's loss of momentum is more to do with the current market, nothing to do with Q. Apparently the capacity war with V & T had a lot to do with it.


P.S. If your post is a wind up, then sorry to everyone else for being sucked in & stating the obvious!

I'd love to agree that Jetstarpilot's post is a wind up, and it still may be. However, the spelling and grammar are in line with the rest of his/her posts.

From the/a horses mouth in the last 48hrs...

The new LHEA to be sent to AIPA COM for their meeting next Tues, and if recommended, to be put to the membership in due course.

Business plan for new type to be presented to the Board at their August meeting, targeting mid 2017 arrival.

Unfortunately there were no indications of which type(s) will be chosen/have been chosen.

There are some good heads working on this (from both sides), so here's hoping it brings a resurgence of growth back to the "Muthership", eh Jetstarpilot?

Rest assured that if JetstarPilot is really a Jetstar pilot and not Compylot by another name then all the real J* pilot's would think he was a knob as well.

Lol. With your attitude it doesn't appear likely.

Knocks come around in this gig. You lost your 787 course, I lost my command. Learning what's important in life is the key lesson. If that's all I teach someone in a career then I'd be a very happy chappy.

That lesson seems to be escaping you at the moment jetstarpilot. I hope you learn it before you give yourself an ulcer..... or worse.

It's a windup.

No 787 courses have been cancelled.

I bet you're enjoying the Airbus keg, and the extra money

Ha ha, "life of bliss", that's me! 😊

No, I don't believe it all, but it makes sense to keep both "entities" going. Then it's easy to play each other off against the other.

More than I thoght I would. It's nice also to revisit the long haul lifestyle.

.......and the extra money
Yet to see that! I suspect it may end up being marginally less. Still, that's pretty damn good and I'm not complaining.

bdcer,

That's refreshing to hear. Others unfortunately do believe the spin and perpetuate the lies as truths.

DEAR KEG, you didn't lose your command. You chose to be demoted. You had the chance to keep your command.

I agree with KEG on this one. I don't think anyone chose to be demoted. Your argument/statement is disengenious at best.

blueloo, by constructing his L.O.P. as he chose to, Keg chose to lose, give away, surrender his command. Call it what you will. You lot know damn well you had a choice. A ****ty one maybe but a choice nonetheless.

Keg, perhaps if you came back with a more mature, considered argument than what you gave Jonah, they wouldn't have to repeat themselves and waste all their precious bandwidth on you. Thanks for the chuckle though. You, PPRuNe's resident soothsayer telling someone else to get out more.
