What's the story with the WA govt. and Skywest ??
I thought we lived in an era of deregulation, and most contributors on this forum calling for QF to have competition on KA, BRM, PD etc, what about competition on Geraldton, Albany, Esperance etc ??!!
How does a company with a dubious at best operating profit jag a major mining contract, with no prior jet experience and using one jet for 20 hours a week ?
Surely Dr. Gallop has had no influence on this ?? no, that would'nt be fair on the other operators would it ?

Topend3, all that introducing another operator into KA, PD, (maybe not BRM) will do, is the same as when Airlink started in WA, it will make sure one operator makes less money and the other makes no money.

and no, I do not wan't to see skywest go under, just a level playing field for all.
