QANTAS should have the guts to bite the bullet. If as this retard bastard Joyce says, it's the o'seas division which is losing $200 million pa .. then STOP running the international air division. Focus solely on domestic air & freight instead. Or - drastically prune back the o'seas air routes to the bare essentials only. How can he competently turn around a $200m loss .. impossible, if Aust'n job standards are to be maintained. We DON'T want, don't need, Asian scab pilots driving QANTAS planes.
