You're right, it's "not quite true". There will be some voluntary redundancies, and a few of those will no doubt be 139 pilots - no more than 5 or 6 at a guess - maybe less. No forced redundancies at this stage. Toll has not won any contracts that CHC has bid on apart from the NSW EMS contract nearly 2 years ago, or if they have it is not public knowledge and does not impact on the current redundancies.
