CHC AW139's for Austeralian EMS Contract

Do some further investigating into what the state government exactly paid Westpac and Careflight to do. Even with all the fundraising that these orgs conducted they still received an exhorbitant (spelling??) amount of money (from the state gov) if they flew or not. Once airborne they charged the gov an hourly rate.

I don't know what CHC are going to charge but I'm sure we will find out eventually.

There was a report on the NSW ambulance service website about 6-12 months ago that detailed all the incumbants costings and aircraft availability. Obviously the gov wanted to provide an improved service without too much of an increase in cost (maybe)...
