YMEN ground handlers stopping work might be another sign. Or a 1-2 aircraft schedule. Or massive pilot turnover. Or pilots/contractors not getting paid on time. Or thousands of displaced punters. Or cannibalized airframes. Or ongoing CASA surveillance. Or an 80 page dossier submitted to REPCON/Carmody by a group of incredibly concerned current and former engineers/pilots/flight attendants earlier this year.
But, If that is not occurring then there is no evidence of impending doom.
