Wink Lawnmowers again!

Me thinks PPRune has lost a lot of AN Pruners who until Tuesday were very "gun-ho", these were the very people who howled down with un-ending vitriol anyone with a realistic view as to the final outcome.

You will find it tough to survive as most decent jobs are well and truly gone, those of us still operating here in OZ will certainly not move over to accomodate you that's for sure.. .The "tainted lads" can definitly forget ever working again here in OZ as the door is firmly closed to those individuals, believe me. That's from the "horses mouth" from at least 3 operators. .of large a/c. Pax and Cargo.

As I said in this forum back in Sept. go out and buy a good lawnmower, you will need it a longer than us 89ers did. Good luck!. .

. .................................................

pour me another Guiness love now where were we?

Thumbs down

More than a few doors overseas are closed as well. Do not expect too many friendly welcomes.

I to am bemused as to where "Buster Hyman" and his loud mouth mates are --- are we in shock lads!

Don't say we didn't tell you that the light in the end of the tunnel was a large freight train driven by LEW and on the back was a sign "YOU HAVE JUST BEEN RUN OVER BY ANOTHER FOX"

Oh yere lawnmowers and taxis are the in thing for the "likely lads".

Hope they still have their 30 pieces of silver, they will need it!!!!

Unfortunatly many young/junior guys not from 89 are also "mowing" so spare a thought for them!. .Qantas and Virgin will hopefully, eventually, give many of them a go! [not at the expense of any present staff though]. .Good luck to all going O/S as well! <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

Unhappy

I am reading this post in complete disbelief. You are a bunch of cold-blooded, callous assholes with out any consideration or thought to people in need of support. Rather you prefer to kick the wounded. You will get you comeuppance one day for the same reason that you are the selfish pilots that fail to support young and up and coming pilots whom are everything wrong with aviation. There are plenty of your types and that’s a dilemma. I am disgraced to call you Australian.

In their blind quest for revenge these people forget that MOST of the pilots affected had nothing to do with their "problem". A very significant number of the objects of their angst had already left or did not choose to return to AN Mk2.

Also there is callous disregard for the balance of 16000 other employees who are affected through no fault of their own whereas their "problem" was self inflicted and, after all, they did get their full entitlements.

This kind of fanaticism is the same that resulted in the WTC tragedy.
