Its sad to see that so many people will be without work. If I were a shareholder of said Company, I would ask for an investigation into mis-management of the Company.

Remember the past , learn from the past .

"Why is Safair selling off all their GOOD Herc's and sitting with the rubbish that Transafrik dumped?"

They sold all the good Hercs along time ago so they could by the crap from Transafrik. Now they are selling the fixed up crap {with EFIS etc} that they managed to get into an almost flyable state. Personally I think they are cutting thier noses off to spite thier faces. Long term I don't think it is going to solve much. They need to get work for these planes.

Thanks Guys

A big thank you to everyone who has participated.
We may agree or disagree but it is all healthy debate and we can only end up as winners if we continue to probe.
What has transpired however is that we all need to be pro-active (that includes marketing!!!) and transparent if we are to ensure our collective future. South african aviation is recognized world wide let us go and prove it!!
Fly safely out there,
Arend 111.

Cave Troll

Cave Troll, Some new contracts seem to be coming to light-so perhaps some light at the end of the tunnel. Maybe it's Herc landing lights coming the other way from another contract???
I agree that marketing needs a bit of a shove,kick,push,punch etc or maybe their company mobile phone should be cut off so they can get out and market (this time around in economy class).
Management could also take a cue???? Perhaps, Maybe???
Fly well.
