What's with network min fuel??? 2.5FOD in an A320 doesn't excite me... I don't feel that's sticking it to the man

Haha what? Burger that. 3.5 min thanks

Maybe she should have flown to Perth to listen to them instead.

Would be inteeating if the mainline 737 drivers come down with a cold and can't cover when/if network go on PIA. Now that would be some commradery and unfortunate timing for QF.

They’ll just cover any flying using Alliance.

doubt they can cover all the charter flights across 320 and f100.

Wheres the unity in that? ...... i'll see myself out :)

By the look of things there is quite a lot that they can't cover :E

Definitely should listen but the fact shes gone there to me means she is pretty worried & right now PIA is not what she needs considering how shes just told us how she needs to start getting the trust of the customers back.
Looks like the noose could be tightening & she needs to find a quick solution.

There’s an easy solution. If she was worried she would agree to their log of claims. Plain and simple. She is not worried. She is trying to play nice guy make the pilots second guess themselves.

Can we start calling the log of claims something wanky like……I dunno, “strategic imperatives”?

(*) Read as one word

Guys have gotta stop working on RDO's & "helping" them out with duty changes for a token payment, if you want to get their attention. Conditions will NEVER change as long as they keep crewing flights.

This is entirely accurate

Kudos to the Network drivers, I hope the PIA happens and they get what's deserved. I heard in the realm of a 30 percent payrise to be in line with Mainline. Now that's action- here here!


Was told that the Alliance big wigs have rejected any pay rises to the east coasters citing that the recent CPI increase was a wage, "increase", I wonder if this will be in their playbook.

Heard nothing of the like - that was a media ploy to possibly calm twiggy and Gina down.

I'm pretty sure Vanessa could't give two ****s about Network, same as Alan, that's how it came to this in the first place. Only PIA will get them to take notice at this point, best of luck guys.

Though I'm sure Vanessa would care about her portion of WA being shut down, disrupted and all the attention it would thus bring.

Absolutely. The resources sector and the WA Government will be screaming blue murder if services to the mine sites are disrupted. I'm sure that's an additional headache she doesn't need right now, especially after this morning's High Court ruling.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure she will come to care about it once they realise a very significant revenue stream is at stake, but up until now QF management have had a very detached and condescending relationship with Network Aviation, happy to take the massive amount of money it generates whilst being quite comfortable to treat it's staff with in WA contempt & indifference.
