Definitely Should

" it was worth it to get a decent dividend on their investment."

BUT. there's the rub !. 

The interest/dividend Is not increasing, only the perks for the upper management is increasing.

IAG profits are up,  Shares given to the exect's are up. Dividend to shareholders is 1% DOWN.

That's from their own information to share holders.

My own father, "Factory owner" was told by his lawyers to make himself & sons "Directors"

just to lower the Tax, and skim the profits down.

Also told to give the directors new cars every year. "Less profit" to hold the wage bill in check.

You don't think the Hoards of lawyer,s vetting all bureaucracy,s paper work, is gobbledygook enough !.

The highest Aussie I head, M bank CEO. $53million per annum,

Do they Still have apprentices in Brisbane ?.

"superior pilots and a legacy of good maintenance points to an airline which is safe."

WAS

Now that good maintenance has gone, oversea,s.

As it's cheap. Any savings went to the CEO's pocket

spacesailor

Joyce sacked the apprentices, & sent the maintenance oversea,s.

Saved NOTHING, as it went to His pocket.

" I'd rather bitch about his exorbitant salary and perks than who wears the pants in his domestic life. "

I'll second that, Less $millions, (upper management salary) could mean less $ for seats

That lower seat price, should be welcomed by millions of flying public.., not just to keep a dozen bureaucrats happy.

Do you reckon he got a large Gift from Qantas.

I & lots of other AIR CADETS (atc), could have been another tragedy, casualty.

 Systerson airshow  prototype VX770 crash 1958, Nottingham UK.

Marching on the runway, with the V-Bomber slow flying over the top of us.

Is there any restrictions on the joe public, getting Avgas, for their unregistered aircraft.

The question is because, when the Oaks has gone, were would I get fuel for my stationary engine runs.

spacesailor

I was thinking that your Tecnam had Great economy & Large fuel tanks. LoL

I was going to calculate the distance, speed, & fuel burn,  (2600KLM ) just to see how many litres of gas you would have to carry.

I know it,s possible by way of Queensland to Norfolk Isle, to Auckland. Or was it Lord Howe Isle.

WHAT

You fly from Victoria Australia to Wellington NZ.

I am surprised, I thought wello NSW.

spacesailor

New reg,s

NSW boats have to have a couple of holes drilled into the hull, (HIN). the attached aluminium plate gets immersed in salt water.

spacesailor 

NOT THE RAMP.

To many CASAfella,s hang aound there.

Spacesailor 

Just the same as the Drug pushers, who kill those party goers.

Might not have intended Murder But definitely Manslaughter! .

What do they get, "pill testers" .

Seconded, 

I think it I need ALL those laugh,s

SIMPLY POLITICS.

Just a look at the inroads a helicopter type airliner woud make into the American market.

The  poor poms Still beholding to uncle sam, would have  had No choice in keeping That aircraft out of their markets.

The  bullcrap the pollies put out was a token at best.

spacesailor

Go for it, Ian.

You've done us well on previous versions.

I don,t think we,ll regret this New idea.

spacesailor

Just the same as their weeping heads, manageable! .

The UK boaties had to have a cylinder head spacer, to convert to kero, as petrol went too expensive for boats.

I,ve still have the magazine pullout that shows "how to do it yourself ", on the outboard motors.

BUT

It didn,t last as the oil companies soon jacked up he price of kero & heating oil,

In NZ I had a car running on 80% ethanol & 20% petrol using a 1/8th copper plate spacer & two gaskets. (worked well, when  no one had fuel to wast on holidays ).

spacesailor

LOW FLIGHING.

Playing tag, in & under the trees .

spacesailor

I didn,t vote as I don,t know the answer,

But it would be nice to know the pilot  will fly again, especially if they are an acquaintance.

And I,ll second JOHNM content as it says what I feel. 

Many thanks, your apreciateded more  then we tell.
