Should the "project" that lacked an airframe capable, and at present, a regulator captured and pilot group beholden be shelved, it joins a long list.

On the plus side, the intervention in the Israel Folau saga never saw open court, gay marriage was secured and Little Napoleon now a wealthy individual, got married.
With the Jetstar illusion under pressure, a change in the pilot union and Christmas approaching, Little Napoleon will be scratching around for a distraction...
Could a subsidiary be bought in to start another of the internal wars his "legacy" is famous for?
In the meantime, Qantas sizzles like the Australian bush!
Leadership..

- Red Q to be headquartered in Malaysia, no wait Singapore, er just don't ask.
- A terminal Qantas, transformed. Not an aircraft, contract or network change to be seen. All rather curious.
- JQ HK that never actually complied with the rules required for principal place of business requirements. Desperately getting Pansy Ho on board. Herself a dubious character considered not fit and proper in Las Vegas...Quietly dropped with an execution price far greater than they admit publicly.
- JQ Asia's expansion, the Road to Nowhere. Foreign owned but paid for by Qantas shareholders. Ten years and counting with massive restructuring costs and not a tangible dollar of profit in sight.
- JQ Vietnam, good money after bad, no tangible profit from this "associate" entity. It did cost the shareholder s a classified fortune to release their management from Hanoi.
- An Emirates Alliance generating precisely how much additional revenue? Lots actually for Emirates, Qantas are reluctant to say.
- Moving their hub from Singapore to Dubai, to change the game. Cost $60 million
- Move said Hub back to Singapore, cost circa $50 million. (Perhaps this answers the point above)

So the rather hyped board meeting is being held today, with last nights communication from AIPA indicating no agreement has been reached with the company.
I have a feeling the company will proceed with an offer direct to the pilots, which you would hope will be knocked back in principle.
Project sunset?

Interesting they’ve gone rollers though.
The 350 was a no brainer. It’s a start of life design. The 777 is an end of life design.
Anyway I’ll believe it when I see it on the ramp.

You can't get an A350 without RR engines (or an 777X without GE) so engine choice was not really a factor.
The 787/777 would be long haul or ultra long haul.
Differences aside, a bus is a bus. If you can fly one, you can jump in any with minimal training.
Ahhh but will Aus try and reinvent the wheel with 330/350 flying?
It seems that will be how QF get the most out of drivers.
ULH only would mean minimal sectors (as I’ve said re the original SQ 340 days).

It’s not exactly an “off the shelf” aircraft, Airbus have added an additional fuel tank and increased the MTOW. What were you expecting dopey?

Australia's Civil Aviation Safety Authority needs to approve the flights of up to 21 hours, and Qantas said on Friday the regulator had "provisionally advised" that it saw no issues with pilot fatigue management on the new routes.
The hurdle rate achieved by threatening or cajoling union executives. Probably a little from column A and a little from Column B.
With the Lead IR negotiator a former AIPA President it seems a few months more pressure ought do the job.
Which subsidiary will it be who will do the flying...
How fortunate that no science is required by a duplicitous and captured regulator. Chairman's lounge membership assured.

It’s bordering on obsessive
