Too thrue there 'opsNormal' with yr post. I like the bit at the end though, you quote..........."The reason is that Government Departments hate dealing with more than one entity and see duplication of offices, managers, aircraft etc etc as a waste of $$$$$ and believe me, they will get their way in the end".
The above highlighted words discribe the Govt itself not just an aviation Co. The trouble is the Govt (any Govt) haven't got a clue when it comes to aviation related contracts, the 'Aman" Aviation debarcle was a perfect Eg. But yr right an overhaul of the top end aeromed requirements doess appear to be needed.
Useful threads & excellent banter hey? Lets hope it stays that way but I have my doubts
