gas chamber, you mean like the various other airlines that have open days for tech and cabin crew around the world but are not planning to have a base in the city where the open day is held?
Give aquaplaner a break for goodness sake.
The word is that they indeed plan to have a Perth base down the track. However the West is now well served by turboprop and jet FIFO services so it will be interesting to see what happens. Alliance are now operating F100 FIFO to Leinster and Mt Keith.
