My current expertise is keeping very old aircraft flying so I've some knowledge of what I'm saying aircraft ops and engineering wise. In a previous life I was a B747 FE so I know a little about them as well.
I'll have to acknowledge that you'e a class or two ahead of me on this subject. That's fine and I'm prepared to listen.
I can also understand some of what you say regarding the economics, although I'm still unsure why you'd be arguing for an in-country fleet that sits idle - as you say - for 8 months of the year. The capital cost incurred would require that the savings over the 4 months of actual operation would have to be pretty spectacular.
Where I may still disagree with you is the assumption that we're currently lagging behind the rest of the world in our tactics or organisation. At some points we are, but that mostly occurs when managers at a
local level are still not fully familiar with the needs and capabilities of aviation.
