Spotlight - so I guess that we should actually take our hats off to Skase and Bondy - after all they were just 2 good ol' aussie fella's given the business world a go. So what if they stuffed people?

Uncommon sense - you got the right tag that's for sure. Teething problems? Are you serious? Completely missing the bleeding obvious is not a "teething problem".

Woftam - yup, you were right. Slat actuator died - skydrol every which way. Had to bring in the spare to cover the flying - and then they cancelled 2 roundtrips. Said it was because there were no punters onboard, but disguised the fact that they had maintenance woes. Already!

Great airline this one - no punters, maintenance woes, wrong market, wrong product. Stoddart has even beat BG on the whinging stakes - I'm sure Godfrey didnt whine in the first month; Stoddart did it in the first 2 days of operation.

And hey lets remember - its not like his current woes weren't entirely predictable.

And yet another Aussie airline goes down the drain hurting hard working aussies
