Mal, certainly am serious. Illawarra Mercury ran a story about the wonders of the airport a few days ago and highlighted the marvels of HARS, the outstanding Tractor and Dozer display being installed by Cleary Brothers and claiming the fantastic advantages of the NSW Air Charter launch.....on that one, failed to mention that their charter aircraft are no longer available (despite the fact they only ever did 1 charter in the past 4-6months) and that the same mob just featured in the Sydney papers claiming they are broke and can no longer provided their famous shark patrols.
On a positive note, I saw an advertisement for shark vacancies on the Wollongong/South Coast beaches....seems there is no longer any threat to them from the little yellow planes that used to put the fear of chr*st up them every weekend! (haha)
