Could all of what?

Anonymous rumours bt the PPRune band of economic experts!

People's livelihoods and careers are at stake here.

I have no allegiance to Strategic but having been the victim as employee of opposition company-generated rumours that assisted in becoming reality I don't take kindly t such unsubstantiated comments.

Yes its a Rumour network but don't forget real people and their jobs are at stake here.

Topend3 is in the know - not enough work for their current fleet - what about the 2am charter to the Solomons on Monday night because that's the only time they could fit it in.
Or maybe they just like working in the middle of the night.

Just heard that passengers flying Strategic out of Bali tonight have just been put on a bus back to the terminal from a friend on the aircraft.

No word yet whether it has gone tech or something else is afoot?

Anyone know whats going on?

A330 might have gone tits up in BNE this morning as the A320 did BNE-DPS via DRW today.

Maybe the A320 may have been full?

Ummmm....

Even a quick glance at their website would show that BNE to Bali is now 4 times a week. So with the same site showing the A330 busy on Phuket 4 times a week I would assume it can't fly 8 days a week, so maybe the A330 has been replaced by the A320.

One of my mates who got in recently said something about this starting soon. Must have started already. He's rapt 'cause he's gunna get multiple overnights in Bali on the 320 fleet. He said DRW was only going to be a 30 minute stop for gas. Pax stay on.

He also said the "big mystery" of the delay in DPS was blocked toilets. Engineers eventually cleared it up and they were away again. So sadly for the usual "nay-sayers", there was nothing "a-foot".

I heard a rumour that if Strategic want to hire any equipment from Qantas, its cash up front. Even something simple such as a Stand.
