Heard that the first machine will arrive in country next Friday to begin transition to the Oz register. The US crews will only be flying it until she hets onto the OZ register & the Oz crews are qual'd.
Good news for Jayrow & the industry I think. New aircraft are well overdue here. Only a matter of time until one of the old battle axes gives in (hopefully without putting any lives at risk).
The market is definately big enough for a new operator. I say "good luck to them!"
