QF Group possible Redundancy Numbers/Packages
I'm not sure...there are approximately 30 A pilots that the integration agreement covers who would get first shot. Perhaps none of them would take a slot, but all are at the head of the queue. An unforeseen consequence of a long-ago deal.

And how bidding for a redeployment slot is different from electing to displace when named in a RIN.
if it a 747 pilot is named in a RIN they can elect to displace A330, 787, 380. If it’s a redeployment slot then it’s different as anyone can bid for slot with seniority. Won’t be any 737 vacancies created whilst pilots are still below MGH. If moronic state premiers lift borders and SH Ramps up maybe vacancies next year but highly unlikely.
anyone know how many 747 pilots are actually left? I heard that just about all the 747 CPT had taken VR or ER. Single digits remaining.
not sure about FO or SO numbers.

The RIN will be on paper only.
It won’t transpire for yeeeeears!
I heard the Sydney office chick had to make 90 phone calls in order to get 9 pilots stood up. Most have employment outside of QF and are not willing to return unless it’s full time work.

I thought you couldn’t actually say no to being stood up again? Unless your on LWOP don’t they just have to give you 2 weeks notice to be back at work. I was under the impression they were just being polite by “asking” if you want to be stood up
Yep, there’s now discussion about enforcing longest since amongst those remaining stood down.
A large proportion of SOs that elected to stay stood down have yet to operate. So those working are burning out.
Given that some aren’t able to work under the current requirements, there’s discussion about new application for LWOP and essentially a ‘prisoner swap’ to bring back those who do want to work but took LWOP due to threat of CR only.

My thoughts are with my aviator brethren who find themselves unemployed, stood down, redundant, on LWOP or whatever other form their employment has taken at the hands of COVID.
I see our friend Discrepancy is a victim also - and whilst I wish him no ill-will, I couldn't help but chuckle at his un-surprising narcissism where he casts comparisons of himself with Neil Armstrong...

"I'll look up to A380s overhead with memories similar to those of Neil Armstrong, when he looked to the sky and saw his footprint on the moon."

Discrepancy is Gonski, it’s just his media affiliations that has got him a no news article. Good luck to him! He’s almost 64 come on who cares?
I’m sure the Jetstar guys will be wetting their pants with excitement.
Nice one.

Firstly, all the very best to those who've taken the package in whatever form.
Any word on the ER Keg? I haven't seen anything through official channels, although I don't really know what the official channels are for announcing something like this.
Where does that leave 330 TREs/ C+Ts? I thought there was some concern over the number of applications from amongst their ranks.

Nunc est bibendum
They mentioned ‘about 50’ for ER I think.
A330 trainer numbers should be OK. Not quite as dire as some initially thought them to be. The loss of some fantastic mentors is what saddens me the most.
