Don't confuse the stating of facts with negativity. Reality often hurts in this industry, but it is reality none the less.

Huh? All I can understand from your post is that it just might be rooted in a very poor understanding of Australian regs. Are you suggesting the aircraft won't be registered in Australia when you talk of wet lease? If it is not to be registered in Oz that opens up a whole new regulatory can of worms. If it is to be Aussie registered it needs a CofA and a CofA cannot be gained within this country unless every part on the aircraft can be traced back to birth. A new aircraft - no problem. The older the aircraft the more difficult (and sometimes impossible) it can be. No records from birth means the part must be changed to one that can be traced. This is not Lardie dah, it is fact.
I hope it works for them, but it is a long road from a lick of paint to operating a passenger service.
