Did they operate in the TAA reservation system, then went across to the Ansett system?
No. Ansett Res System from the beginning. Flights operated from Ansett's Gate 49 at Brisbane Airport.

A pretty quick start up in those days from nothing to operating the first service in six weeks.
No, 16 days. Contract advised to bidder Friday 15 May, 1987. First flight Monday 1 June 1987. A record to form a company and obtain an AOC?

One of the CASA guys in Darwin was one of their first captains on the B200.
Deefa!! Came soon after commencement, along with a military contract.
