Friday update

Loved the update from the DFO, apparently Pilots wear "equalettes" on their shoulders?

Come on AT they are epaulettes for gods sake.

Spell check?

...And it was incorrectly stated twice, not just a typo...Just another example of how incredibly clueless some people are while supposedly competent to be in charge of pilots, ops, safety, etc...

Oh, sorry, having already thrown up into my mouth a little bit, I didn't want to barf, so I didn't go back to count before I posted....

It's obvious she's a corporate climber but maybe that's not all she climbs?

Pink epaulettes!! Give spare change to a pilot!! She can take a running jump, how demeaning for the pilot group. Breast cancer awareness is a worthy, though heavily subscribed, cause. This is not a suitable circus to progress this cause ..... what a muppet she is

It is not a CX initiative, it is a challenge from QF Link and the fine lady pilots of CX have accepted this challenge.

Please be kind, breast cancer is the No 1 killer of all cancers of women worldwide, and men do in fact also get breast cancer.

All money's raised will be going to a worthy cause, breast cancer research - and it is also fun to wear pink to work too, isn't it?

They say change is as good as a holiday - let's have some fun with this harmless episode.

There are some dic@heads on here. It's a perfectly noble cause. One of our own, a highly respected individual, has been off for upwards of 2 years with cancer, which originated as breast cancer. Feel free to email him and take the piss.
