HS: Anecdotally, and compared to any pilot/union negotiation (or even discussion) with QF, what you have described is the rolled gold, red carpet fast track experience. No mere employee would expect...

Here's another way of looking at it.

Qantas isn't so much 'buying' pilots, but in reality it is 'selling' Australian residency.

A bit like online piracy sites being shut down by the same...

Whilst that is certainly an example of poor behaviour, in the litany of truly disgusting behaviour from Coward St, over particularly the last 10-15 years, that would not rate a mention.

To all the complete weirdo’s out there who don’t get the nod, I’ve been in long enough to say I am deeply concerned about the recruitment process as dictated by HR. What Qf are after (IMHO) are...

with the ATO (or even in a criminal Court) I would likely not be free to comment. And then there are Company emails, which I frequently...

I can categorically state without any fear of contradiction that NO Second Officer in QF earns anywhere NEAR as much in a year as Alan Joyce earns in 5 days. 380 Captains would almost squeak in 6...

Bit hard to argue about money/fatigue at the moment - In stark contrast to every other QF fleet, I believe there are about 100 crew per 787 at the moment! Almost as difficult to get a seat as on...

Just to let you know how far Qf Pilots have come - that’s about what S/O’s on the right aircraft (admittedly working hard) were earning when the -400 was introduced in ‘89.

And to make that...

Which is why I included 380’s. Broad brush, I was back of envelope accurate. Where I wholeheartedly agree with you is pilot numbers. What concerns me is massive downsizing of the airline.

Never forget, in pax terms 20 x 787’s is only 10 x 747/380’s. More of which have been and are scheduled to be retired. This is straight out of the...

That's not a joke either, folks. It also gives you an idea of the mental understanding the people who 'run' the airline actually have of what an airline really does. Qf pilots got an email a few...

Don't take it personally if you don't fit what some QF HR drone (who might know aircraft have wings) thinks a pilot should be. They hate technical crew, don't understand the...

Dear God in Heaven. For any of you that don't get into QF, I could not paint a more accurate picture of the world you dodged a bullet on than that. Greasy pole climbing in the face of any reality you...
