A few points...

Too Cloudy - The Vic Police contract was initially won by someone else. Unfortunatly or fortunatly depending on you point of view they could not come up with the goods for the price they had tendered at. The contract then fell to CHC who could (and did) supply the machinery for the price they tendered at.

High Nr - there are many incorrect statements in you posts but I will focus on one in particular. The crews that left the NSCA did not do so by choice, they left because they had no choice! In fact all of the people I know who are ex-NSCA (and there are quite a few as I am ex-NSCA myself) would be still working there if they could. As for the crews departing CHC, I think that you might find that people will be fighting tooth and nail to stay if, and it's a very big if, CHC don't win the RAAF SAR contract. Most of the crews are high on the seniority list and will hardly want to start with a new company on the bottom of the list.
