I thought Aipa had this all soughted, last thing we heard from them was Qantas is a seperate company and you can apply to join like everybody else. Whats changed ?????

Ruprecht,

Is that why you guys need 4 pilots whenever you fly?; one is good with numbers, one is good with letters, one can read and the other sits huddled in the corner, rocking back and forth, saying 'we shouldn't be doing this, we shouldn't be doing this..."

Correct. Guess which one I am? :)

Ah its all single pilot over here lads, we fly through typhoons and snowstorms every day, sometimes even do the odd wheel change etc, best you boys stay there in the nice warm clear air ;)
