Everyone on here that thinks the show is rubbish, appear to be very well updated on the goings-on.
So..it begs the question. Why do you continue to watch if it is sooo bad?
I'll watch it over Summer Bay any day, because I like watching anything to do with aircraft.
At an airport. I will watch aircraft taxiing, takeoff, land etc for no other reason than it is more interesting than anything else at the time (unless of course a smoking hot young lady happens to be in eyeshot).
The show is produced for the masses who have no idea of aircraft. If it were 100% accurate in our view, the show would probably be unwatchable by the proletariat who have not the slightest understanding of aircraft.
Apparently it rates quite well and is distributed internationally, so that can only bolster our tourism industry....which provides the vast majority of employment for most on here.
The plumber bloke (who I met recently at YBAS) waiting inline for the hire car at Uluru made me chuckle. Why couldn't one of the local Plods pick him up to go fix their own ****house ?
