There's not much point in job creation if the jobs you create cease to exist shortly thereafter. It's nothing to do with tall poppies, some people do this stuff extraordinarily well, but Pero's recent track record has been anything but. At some point you have to differentiate between clever businessmen and lucky businessmen.
And Pero has pretty much nothing to do with the NZ aviation industry any more, so no, no particular issue with the NZ aviation industry, other than it's intensely parochial nature and utter inability to follow international trends in safety and regulation. But hey, I learned to live with that years ago. It's just that I'll call it what it is, which I know upsets some of you sensitive souls...
