Well if Vincent go ahead. I know from local experience that the people at Mannigrida, have had enough of Air North and their delayed baggage problems. Its allways been a problem there. The 1900 prolly run into the same problem. Unless they got a D model maybe different. They should also swing by Oenpelli during the wet. On the way back. Theyd pick up something there, if it was approved and promoted in that community. When the East Alligator comes up it stays up for around 3-4 months some years. Lots of People want to go Shopping town around XMAS.
Ofcourse, Im not sure if Vincent, can bare to see their nicely kept 1900, turn into a CessPit like AirNorths dirty pencils.
Even the Bandit under Execs and Arhnems, had problems with bags.
Where I am now we have problems, thats because Yanks take everything bar the kitchen sink to go to an All Inclusive Resort.
anyway my 2 cents worth good luck all concerned.
P.S. Dont be perterbed by Air North Supporters, and their Frequent Flyer programm. B*****d if I could stay on a pencil, that long to get points. The few that you'd earn.
