Another sad day for regional communities that rely on airservices, unfortunately not every community has the luxury of several jet services a day.
I was talking to some Airlink guys last week and they have been short of crew for the B1900 for a while and have had one parked at Dubbo for some time. I had a sticky-beak at one of their C310's and Chieftain and those aircraft are very neat, not like you average GA sh*t box on it's 25 paint scheme!
I have done a few flights with Airlink recently, certainly a lot more impressive to fly with than a few others I had the misfortune to fly with on the East coast. At least they know what an on time departure is!!!
