I don't know you so feel free to send me a private message and tell me if you like. You might also explain why my post was "misleading" and "out of line", is it just because you don't like the news? This is the "rumour network" after all. You could also tell me if my post was more or less out of line that you unsubstantiated (and rather vulgar) allegation of fuel misappropriation.
I didn't say that they had won the contract (but I'm sure they will) I said they were the preferred tenderer. As far as you "hearing", or was it "making up", that the Oz Army is interested, well maybe they should have put a tender in! No disrespect to the Army, but they are heavily commited at the moment without having to allocate crews and machines to RAAF SAR. The cost civies doing RAAF SAR is about 1/3 the cost of the military doing it themselves, so how much will we save?
You go ahead and continue your CHC bashing if you like, I'm just happy for the crews, aren't you???
