Raredata, Hi
There is, actually, a very tenuous link between them (HLA OZ/UAE). Farhad Azima had one of the controlling interests in HeavyLift Cargo Airlines (1980).(THE HLA, all others are copies).
The link is in the Belfast which was owned by HLA, and indirectly by Farhad Azima (who now owns HLA UAE), and bought by HLA OZ, owned by Nick Leach.
Not being pedantic, just setting the record straight!
From some of the above posts I guess there are lots of similarities?
