As a victim of Ansett, l understand the angst going through most of you at the moment. But remember: Things will get better, one way or the other.
Those preporting that the government will bail VA out is a misnomer. Never happened for AN won't happen now.
Those preporting that the government need two airlines: Forget it. They don't care.
As with AN, there will be some new foreign upstart that will fill the void, like VA.
Not saying anything against VA staff, but new horizons will emerge for those dedicated, like the old AN crew.
All the best.
