I would presume the Impulse f/a's would be employed under the same conditions as they are now.
The only diferences would be that they work in QF uniform, on QF Regional branded (maybe QANTASLink??) aircraft, parking at QF terminals.
Just as NJS is under contract to supply all the jets and crews to Qantas for QF's largest regional, Airlink. And just as Qantas contracts some International cabin crew from Adecco.
The only way for Impulse/ Aircrews conditions to improve would be for the FAAA and the Impulse f/as to fight for changes. Sorry, sounds harsh but it's reality - they're not gonna hand any pay/condition increases to you on a silver platter !!.
I would think that Impulse f/a's SHOULD be on a similar Award to the Airlink contracted crews, who are on a pretty good Award, compared to Impulse f/a's. Considering they will both be working on jet operations contracted to QF Regional brands.
But hey, it's not all doom and gloom, at least the Impulse flighties and techies look like they'll keep their jobs, which they wouldn't if the QF deal wasn't there.
Good Luck, which ever way it goes.

faaa.net is only for International crew represented by the international branch of the faaa. I would be contacting the domestic/regional division instead. The International branch only represents QF Long Haul and Lauda crew. But the domestic/regional branch represents all regionals and domestic including QF shorthaul, and all QF's regionals.
By the way, QANTASLink was announced as the new name for all QF's regionals today!! so I spose that is who you'll be flying for if the ACCC approves the takeover on the 15th.
Good Luck !
