the thing is that everyone heard, from 'reliable sources' that they were getting more 767's. did that fall through, and how is this different? i'm in no way a sceptic, if i had that sort of money NW would be the first airline i'd buy. you can say what you like about the personal matters of V, but he does have a solid eye for business. I just sincerely think the industry in SA would be a better place without him.:ok:

This is a very interesting rumour......so any facts to go with it?

- They are 'looking' (and have been for some time) for more 767's and 73 classics, not quite the same as 'getting' more ;)

- VB to go.

- 100% buyout, nobody seems to have a clue to who though.

- more info supposedly to come shortly. Ha ha!

- Crew at the moment are feeling like a) punching bags, because of horrible check-in system which negates on time departures, and b) mushrooms, for the usual reasons. An aura of chaos prevails.

well Looks like the airline bussimes is going through a bit of rougth water because of a hand full of CEO's that want to ellimanate the competition. Look at Safair SAA and now NAtionwide. Maybe the Goverment is behind all this it must be a conspiracy

Handling Licences
 

ACSA have awarded licence to Bidaor and Menzies. The others are on a month to month licence

The usual performance from VB - go through the whole process, then demand his 51%, in effect telling people 'I want you to just give me the money, and I'll stay the boss'. The usual result - 'No deal!'

Thats what I said. He will not give up control.....never. You have to buy him out! Par for VB.

So I take there is no deal then?

Isn't it just fantastic how by being a d:mad:s gets you places? i can't understand how they keep hitting 21 in their aviation game of blackjack...sold or not they have a winning formula. i don't think anyone (including employees) will know for sure if the place has been sold until the new boss pitches up for work one morning, and V is buying another racing car...

Any further news
 

So whats the story with Nationwide has it been sold,

this thread has gone quiet, anyone out there in the know :confused:

I have heard that old Phoenix SunAir's name mooted again in this deal...:suspect:
