Believe all is not well within this outfit, apparently moral is pretty low because of the "new" management attitude to the guys who were already employed there. The new CP is not on everyones dinner party list nor is the "flotsom" he dragged in with him.

There is also a very strong rumour that this "new" management is on very shakey ground with CASA over a number of issues, actually "up to their armpits in alligators" was the term used, and it is said that they can't find the swamp. Added to all there woes apparently a very disgruntled well qualified 727 pilot has taken them to court over their policy of hiring unrated pilots for advertised 727 positions.

With all this going on one wonders if with former Ansett staff now running the show whether AAE will go the same way, fairly rocky start to an expansion I'd say!!
