Slats11, maybe the reason that the ASNSW changed operators from the 'exemplorary service to the people of NSW' was exactly that... 'for a good reason' I don't know?
Careflight and Livesaver did a great job, now the times have changed. Contracts come and go. CHC may not win it back next time. I'm sure who ever wins it will attempt to do what CHC are doing I guess, they will try to provide the best service possible.
