Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Only a few problems stand in the way. Gold Air has no aircraft, no air operator's certificate, no launch date and no major financial backers

Most great airlines flying to-day started with a vision, wouldn't it be a marketing coup to have Princess Mary, I could just imagine the clambering and rolling heads.

Gold Airways one could assume is not there to just upset others plans, no more than when Virgin and Jet* strated or OzJet for that matter.

In the end the punters will vote with their feet, Ansett never collapsed, it was murdered and gotten rid of, and I think there are many out there, that know and remember that fact.

I assume that many ex Ansett staff will be employed by Gold, as so many of them have been so totally discriminated against by the current incumbents.

I'd be rather sceptical about load factors in an A320 flying to Forrest!

Believe it when I see it

Noticed SMH carried an article about Gold Air in the paper this morning. Looks like they are looking for backers or are not telling.

Wonder who this European interest is?

At least they are upfront about the competition and are not afraid to say so.
Where's your "Analysing Gold Airways - The unofficial Business Plan", or "Gold Airways Launch Setback" thread??

If you didn't want to be seen to have a vested interest in Gold Airways (which would explain your anti-Ozjet ramblings), you would do so.

C'mon, let's be honest - where oh where will Gold Airways get it's patronage from, considering (as far as I can tell) they intend on being Ansetts "successor". There is no opening for a full service, two class carrier in Australia.

I await the threads

Zigzag,

You will not get a response from the person you are directing your post at, just like we are still awaiting a response on the Rex thread and the OZjet thread.

As I have stated the ploy is to stirr up trouble and then lie dormant or lurk in the Cabin Crew forum until we all forget who started it all in the first place.

Since we are all gold fish the ploy is working....

I'm with you - the person we speak of has sunk their money in Gold Airways. This is the only reason I can think of for the campaign against Ozjet.

Two Class?

Not sure Zig Zag but the airline's name suggests a class of its own don't you think. Flexible classes are not irrelevant in today's market.

Legal,

I suggest you now declare any and all interest you have in Gold Airways.

Whilst this is an anonomous forum, that does not absolve individuals from the laws of liable, securities and insider trading laws and fraud.

If, as a person with interests in Gold airways, you are talking up their intended operation whilst talking down a potential competitor, all the while posing as a neutral observer, and , by the implications of your handle, suggest you have legal qualifications to bolster you credibility, it could easily be interpreted as an attempt to gain financial gain by desception.

I also suggest the Mods have a "word in private" with you...

Not at all. Possibly changed email addresses and failed to modify the PPRuNe profile and PM's not accepted.

If I can't contact a PPRuNe user then they can stay out of the sand pit until they re establish communications.

Thumbs up You are the greatest!

Woomera,

THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU!!!

I am so glad that you made that decision! I have stopped posting on Pprune because of her, and have made other arrangements to get to chat to people. I am not alone in thinking this way! Thanks once again!

Its a shame that one individual like LC can put off other people from prospective jobs. From what I understand, LC put one particular Ppruner off so much that they turned down a job offer. LC should be ashamed of herself.

Good luck to all involved in new careers at Ozjet.
Training in 9 days.

Still on the ground

Hmm..just did a little digging of my own, and perhaps RMM could confirm as I believe he was, or still is, an Ansett LAME. (or even AN LAME),

Mr Busche is still remembered without fondness around the place.

Perhaps, therefore, given Legal Counsels overt enthusiasm over Gold Airways, this therefore may be the conflict of interest.

Anyone from Ansett engineering able to confirm or deny?




Lets keep it to the people directly involved and who are in the public domain shall we. W

Why are we censoring Legal Council, what happened to free speach, he/she can say what he/she likes it supposed to be a free country, its either the truth, rumor or total fiction, who cares, it will never worry the intelligent.

Out here someone knows the real story, and if need be, will shoot down Legal Council or any one else with logic in relation to these threads.

Mind you an odd red herring doen't go astray to reel in the idiots of which there are many, and only for entertainment.

So I for one will give Gold my business, so the sooner they start the better, and there will be many others that will follow, many have had a gut full of the treatment by the incumbents since the demise of Ansett.

Nice Sidestep.........

...but you still didn't answer my post.

Where are the threads? You've even got two days to work out how to construct them!

Not sure Zig Zag but the airline's name suggests a class of its own don't you think. Flexible classes are not irrelevant in today's market.
Class of it's own? No, I don't think. An offering any other airline in Aus offers, just renamed? I think so.

Flexible? Who cares. Contort it any way you want - the patronage wont be there. Business plan can look as bulletproof as anything, but lack of prospective passengers is why there's no backing.

I'd love to see Gold prosper. Unfortunately, I can't see it happening.
