I hear a bit of a tail today that Care Flight ( and I guess Pel Air) will be picking up the slack when Pearl finish the contract in the Top End at the end of June. Seems to be looking good for them to just carry right on from January 1st as well.
I also hear Rex have begun the process to import 4 new King Airs within the last ten days, but cant say that is gospel, just a prune'ism. As well as CF headhunting experienced flight nurses.
Anyone got any info?
If that is the case I guess there will be one hell of a p!ss up out past that old Berrimah Line at some stage, and a bunch of experienced pilots set free on the market at the same time.
Good luck to all affected, hope you all find employment ASAP.
