There wasn’t much talk of government assistance almost 10 years ago when Skytrans collapsed following the loss of the North QLD subsidised routes to Rex.
Why would there have been???

What was left of Skytrans Mk1 wasn’t worth saving. Also no substantial route network that couldn’t immediately be taken over by other operators. West Wing took LHR/AUR and KOW/PMP days later, Rex took Bamaga. Brisbane was just mining charter which is not a govt problem…
