You're either dreaming or delusional!!!

I’d be careful with those words there. Well ****** has been brought out maybe a name change.

If your sick, go check yourself into a cynic hospital – I believe they look after people like you well [pun intended]

Sorry I touched a raw nerve guys.

I didn't agree with Eddington about many things but he hit the nail on the head when he said "This is a great airline but it's a terrible business".

I'll agree it got bled from outside but let's face it, what sort of management would go to Mr Boeing and say gee, we'd like some of your nice B767s but can you put a seat in it for the FE.
Allowed rostered overtime for bag chuckers.
Project 2000 - what ever that was.
Flew a fleet of aircraft that were same type but different config so each individual aircraft had it's own maintenance manuals.

Guys, we were all on a good wicket while it lasted but it just doesn't work like that anymore.

Project 2000

Now that was fun! Would have been very interesting if that plan too off the ground.

As one of the few that made it to AN MkII, and having seen the business plan, it was possible to turn a profit (albeit in theory) within 6 months.

However, that was 2002 & only QF was a serious competitor at the time. DJ was only just ramping up. Now, with 4 individual operators plying their trade around Oz, I reckon there's no chance.

It's either a wind up, or, if real, someones about to lose more money than they can count!:ugh:

Mr Byrt must secure the rights to use Ansett in the aviation sector and even then, the company would be renamed Ansett ******.

Not again, the old story comes around every couple of years.
