U gota point.

Makulu
You have a definate point there and I was wondering why the SA goverment wouldnt assist in subsidizing some of the SA companies doing good contract work for all the UN and affiliates for the PR benefit? Our contract pilots should be proud for representing South Africa as they are (well most anyway) good ambasadors for South Africans and Pilots alike. Id like to think so anyway...
My coments on Moral pilots switching back over to AA was grounded on AA pilots going to the Morals cause the bucks was better, but now..? No job. Lower bucks is better than no Bucks.
Im still trying to find the proof (to quote a Bush we know) That AA do indeed get subsidized, I was always under the impression that: AA=NGO and stood to benifit from that status. Alas Im working on hearsay and word of mouth. Sorry.
So until I can prove subsidies, I wont be mentioning it again.
Hey SA companies get TAX relief from work outside SA declared or NON, cant that be considerd a subsidy?


k!
Antygravity rules!! O.
