Qantas is getting some more aircrafts even in the midst of the present crisis,or it may be part of an earlier plan anyway to acquire more equipment.
On the second thought it maybe for the proposed domestic airline "Australian Airlines" that is now planned to start earlier due Ansett closing down,well almost,I guess.
One good thing would come out of this for the ex-ansett pilots and that is to get a job with the Qantas domestic carrier.
