Xr History

In 2001 Xr had accumulated over $25 million in profits before the Ansett collapse and Air New Zealand then withdrew that capital just before the Ansett collapse.this money had been carefully put aside and was their to upgrade the fleet and invest in the airline.
Xr had only 5 f50 aircraft and around 50 odd pilots those days.
Xr now have 7 f50 aircraft (owned outright) and three f100 aircraft and pilot numbers will be close to 100 by years end.
so Xr came back from the brink with no capital from 2001 because of the Ansett "woes".
Xeptu you have "no idea" of what it takes to turn a company around and bring it back from a "financial abyss".
now i would like to see what's on your "resume" and what you have personally achieved in these last five year's.

cheers
