Very valid question.

The mining downturn in WA a few years ago left a few people financially exposed after the rug was unexpectedly pulled from beneath them.

I don’t believe that many will go back to GA unless they have just come out of it or they have a good relationship with a GA operator, and aren’t in debit up to their eyeballs.

I’m a casualty of this mess, stood down until further notice. I don’t think I will ever return to the airline due to obvious reasons.
