SIA already expanding their operations in Australia.
They currently have a basic flying school at YPJT. From July their advanced flight training moves to YBMC. They are operating more flights into YBBN.
The company (Aeromil) who is providing the support (ie Sim Building and maintenance) is also one of the partners in QAH/FWA. From what I've been told the sim building at YBMC will be larger enough to hold 3 sims in total (the LR45 plus 2 others).
FWA could play a large part in any SIA domestic airline. SIA aircraft could operate the trunk routes, while the F100's could operate the leisure routes that cannot support B737s from VB (just like the QLINK 717's do). KD,ZL and YT could feed both SIA domestic and VB.
Let the games begin.
