I beg to differ with the above post.
Skywest has indeed been back in the air for about nine weeks, a total of 9 days on the ground.
The little twerp Gallop (laughingly called the premier of W.A.) did nothelp us inj any way, in fact he was more interested in Qantas taking over the state, aviation wise.
It was Federal Govt. aid in the form of a $3.5 million line of credit (repayable at commercial rates) that got us up again.
All that Gallop did was place obstacles in our way, a decision he will regret.
Finally a number of private individuals and consortiums have expressed interest in buying the airline (separate from Ansett) and that should happen in the next few weeks.
