Not really thread drift, Wally, the events of 'that year' were very closely linked to Llayba Pardy politics.
The three companies involved no longer exist, but many of us are still pilots, and there is a quiet little gathering being planned at a certain regional airport early next year for 'cleanskin' ex-Ansett crew; no wringing of hands or gnashing of teeth, but a fly-in, golf, catching up with old mates, food and of course 'liquid refreshment' aplenty.
