Wink virginboys to be junior

Interesting position. Air NZ buys Ansett, which owns kendell,skywest,aeropelican and hazelton.
Air NZ buys Virgin.
All united as one "happy" group of pilots. Seniorority system established. Air NZ top, AN next, followed by kendell, skywest, aeropelican, hazelton then virgin.
Twin otter pilots senior to b737 pilots from virgin. Twin otter pilots get 737 slots. B737 pilots now sent off to Newcastle to fly twin otters.
WELCOME BACK TO ANSETT LADS, YOU SHOULD HAVE STAYED OVERSEAS AND LEFT US ALL ALONE.

......then SQ come along and buy 49% of Air New Zealand AND THEN>>>>>>>>>

Out goes the seniority list.
SQ tells all the pilots what and where they will fly and finally -
Everyone gets a 29.5% pay cut!

......and then Alice wakes up to find it was all a bad dream!

Whiskery,

You hit the nail on the head and drove it into the wood. You couldn't be closer to the truth.

Beerbrewer , Virginboys would love to see the Otter boys on the 737 , that is if they get through! Dont forget the 89 VB boys are seasoned professionals who have been living in the real world not sheltered by AN management like yourself. You have a lot to learn!
