Yes nelson are still interviewing for 2 new aircraft that arrive next year, Havent heard much about whats happening at the NZ division of NASA (Eagle) but the bottom line is things are going to slow right down and probably stop.
The economy is lunching itself, GA Outfits like sunair will find it hard with reduced freight volumes and companies looking to reduce costs.Less tourism as well makes it hard for scenic operators. Not to mention the increase in costs due to the low dollar. Talk of redundencies at Air NZ. If you want a stable job in aviation, join the Air Force.
Green goblin did you come thru GA? It amuses me how everyboby cracks on about how pilots screw it for everyone by accepting **** conditions when they came through the same system. If you came thru before min wage then he reaped what you sowed. get off your soap box.
water wings: just because the planes are flying, doesnt mean their making money which is the important part.
