Great news!

I heard rumblings that Eddie was in the pipeline to take on the role.

I’m sure Mal’s legacy will continue on, now that Pacifc have another very experienced and highly respected leader back in the chair.

A great move by Pacific Helicopters. I have flown extensively with Eddie on the Air Niugini B707 and also the A300-B4 in the late 70's and mid 80's. He is a true professional in all respects and will be a tremendous asset for Pacific Helicopters,
Well Done Eddie !
