The better question is what does this acquisition do for Vortex and the training agreement they have with Air Log, another Bristow Company. It makes very good business sense....they now have a JAR school in the USA and can combine the FAA program with the JAR program and have the real deal.

Throw in some simulators and classrooms....combine all the training for the company worldwide in one place. Perhaps if they purchase a small but profitable airline somewhere.....they then can get ID90 tickets for staff travel and save a bundle.

Now if they used the old Aberdeen trick of putting different logos on the opposing sides of the aircraft....say for instance G-ATOY on one side....and N22AL on the other they would have the bases covered.

What was it....Texaco and Conoco they did that to with the 212 way back when?
