So.....

If and its a big if (but arn't alll rumors?) ANZ gets the Q400-Q400X, Whos going to operate them Mt Cook or Air Nelson......Thinking about it.....
Why does ANZ run 3 Different airlines with 3 different types wouldnt it make more sense to run a common type in a common company structure?
B1900 replaced with Q200 (yes I know it has double the number of seats)
S340 well they are all gone now
ATR70 replaced with Q400-Q400X
Engineering overheads reduced
Training, its damn near a common type rating isnt it? (at least the same systems?? and the sim can changed to be set up for each type??)
and the company structure gets a chain saw taken to it (Mt Cook and Eagle cease to exist)
Or is ANZ to full of company politics to let that happen?
