EDITOR’S<br />

NOTE<br />

Welcome to the <strong>2021</strong> Spring Edition of the Silent Review,<br />

your cabin crew magazine.<br />

In this edition we honour a remarkable person, Arthur Mansour. Many of us know<br />

Arthur from flying and more so from his position in the EP department. Arthur has<br />

many skills and this article outlines how much more there is to that smiling face he<br />

so often parades.<br />

As we phase out of lockdown into “return to flying," it is important we understand<br />

the legislation related to contracting Covid in the workplace. We welcome Michael<br />

Hyland, the FAAA associated legal expert, on all matters Workers Compensation and<br />

in particular contracting Covid at work. Michael talks in detail about what transpired<br />

when flying was being wound back in March 2020 as the pandemic was declared.<br />

Learn what we can expect in relation to this going forward.<br />

Our very own councillor, Benjamin Parker writes about Enterprise Bargaining<br />

Agreements (EBAs) and explains a little more about them in detail. Ben’s article<br />

covers a broad scope of industrial law items, which is important to understand as<br />

this relates to our job as cabin crew.<br />

There is a great article on our extremely well respected ex-CSM Sam Barripp who<br />

took VR and moved into a new world of customer service and hospitality.<br />

Plus, the FAAA business directory along with other discounted offers throughout<br />

the magazine.<br />

Last of all, the cover page was a creative contribution by our very own QCCA<br />

councillor and editor, Sarah de Wilt.<br />

Enjoy the read and welcome back!<br />
