So, while APNG continues to flounder, and Skytrans continues to lose staff (52 in less than 12 months), contracts are lost (continuously, and even Elrose has now gone to Alliance), and they lose money, Bentley's and of course aircraft, two of those planes have popped up at Maroomba;
Australia's Maroomba Airlines to add two more Dash 8-100s - ch-aviation.com
Ever since Maroomba cut the Skytrans noose away from around its neck it has risen from strength to strength. Good work lads
And it is great how the four ex Maroomba Dash 8's are now operating most of the Cairns flights. It's great advertising at least, having those 4 tails flying around Queensland advertising Maroomba and not Skytrans who are operating the aircraft! It only costs $20k per tail to repaint them, surely things aren't that tight? Oh well, dropping the free bag allowance from 20kg to 15kg might help a little, even though most people flying in and out of indigenous communities can't afford this
