Back in 1996 the winner of the Defence target tow contract was announced. Everyone thought National jet was a 100% certainty to win it again. BANG. pel-Air was announced as the winner much to national jets anger. They hung around hoping,wishing,preying Pel-Air would fall over. They even kept a few planes around ready to swoop in if it happened.
Well it didnt happen and Pel-Air became the new Target Tow contract holders.
7 or so years later it was contract time again. Once again many other bidders all convinced they would beat Pel-Air this time.
BANG. Pel-Air wins again. At this point they were the first contractor to win it twice since the target contract started in the 80,s.
My point being things will never happen as you anticipate. And you would be wasting your time expecting them to fall over.
I was actually part of the Target contract back in 96.
They were convinced 100% that they would still be working for national jet.
Then they were told the winner to which they all asked.
WHO THE F@#K IS PEL-AIR. They are survivors thats for sure.
