couple of questions on this thread

Q1 - who changed the title of this thread and why? it started off as something like "RFDS get boot from VIC air ambulance" - was it politically correct to change the title or was someone's ego hurt too much??
Q2 - what is the prediction for the rest of the air ambulance contacts coming due? - my guess is - NSW = Pelair, QLD = Pelair, NT = Pelair and CareFlight. If this is proved correct it will herald a resurgence of commercial providers of contract aviation services and also put RFDS back where they do their best work, fed govt funded remote services - Clyde sent RFDS in the wrong commercial direction and they have been learning that lesson for the past 7 years, losing money hand over fist just so his ego could be stroked by wan*er politicians.
All those of you who don't have a clue - and from the quality of the posts here on this subject it is the majority, save your comments and smilies and wait for someone who knows what is going on to make a valid contribution.
