All I can say, sad day in aviation again. I have never flown for Rossair although I have applied there a few times in the beginning of my career. The sad thing is, in SA we need all the aviation jobs possible. We need every airline who starts to succeed. Every charter company (Note, not crew and aircraft agent) who trains and employs crew helps in building a healthy commercial avaition sector, needles to say, they need to survive.
Some people seems to get an endless amount of pleasure in the demise of a small company. Overheard an employee of our national carrier remark "These small airlines must all close down, they are dangerous, unproffessional and just ripping our clients away" What an idiot ! Was he born in a spoories seat or what ?
I hope somebody helps them out in order for them to continue. Its not just the pilots, its groundstaff, engineers suncontractors etc. Its a whole chain of "nothing good for aviation".
Vasbyt guys !!!
