"yes I do remember Mackay and it was very sad. The QLD Gov recognised it's contractual short falls and have addressed them in a very responsible way. "
Someplace,
I don't think the QLD gov has done much, you might find that in Mackay there are still 4 organisations flying in the one machine. CHC Helicopters (Australia) supplies machines, pilot and engineer, CQRESQ supplies crewman and admin, QLD Ambulance the Paramedic and RACQ CareFlight the doctor.
I do hope they are all on the one page, but as there is a government organisation involved I doubt it.
