Part of me wants to see some of the precious attitudes that exist in NZ airline circles take a bit of a kicking..if for no other reason than to realize that some of the best and brightest people have had to find their feet elsewhere (and I don't include myself in that)
In every practical sense there will never be a shortage of wannabe's in NZ, but it looks increasingly like some of the regional operators will feel the bite as guys wanting jet gigs move on. That being said, I personally think it will be a short-term problem.
Outside of NZ and Oz, things just keep going mad....and long may it continue

Remoak mate......3 months into my new job, I got some positive news....looks like maybe a nice Bayliner to go with the Pauanui pad

PM on the way
