The situation we have at the moment has to be far better than liquidation where there would be no jobs. At least at the moment there is a chance that between 3000-6000 jobs may
be saved.

Stay safe.

If VA was liquidated then looking into the crystal ball we may have seen something like an Aeroflot situation when the Soviet Union broke up. All their TU-154/IL-62 went into 10 different colour schemes.
In this case, 75 737s split up into a number of airlines. All funded all obtaining AOCs all crews/engineers/ground/gate staff all ready trained. As it is Rex want a couple now. Just my left field hypothetical.
Or that Singapore mob would of collected the whole lot.
