The truth is that JJ only goes on what a certain operator who owns AP (nickname Flappy) says. This certain operator is trying to keep his costs to a minimum obviously because he is GA, and most of the other meatbombers are the same at AP. This certain operator also has close links with an office in WNG called NZAIA or something that is a lobby group for operators and the staff spend most of their day on the phone with JJs office. That particular operator is quite media saavy and turns up often on the evening news. Damage control is already in full stride in favour of the status quo. Don't expect anything to happen quickly. This is NZ after all!!
