Did they have a French accent? Beats the Portuguese ones from the last lot. Obviously no Aussies have the heavy metal needed. Where's Strategic when you need them?
Makes you wonder; one arm of government (Defence) using a foreign carrier to transport our troops, despite another arm of government (CAsA) proclaiming it has the best system in the world.
Obviously raises some questions.

Don't feel too bad for the Portugese flight crew....they'll be ok.
Although they probably can't go to TAP (because of hard times for that airline), there are plenty of jobs here in Asia, the ME and (surprisingly) in Europe.
With some bus time they'll have another job within a month or so....

The Portuguese crew worked for Hi-fly, the Adagold cabin crew were Australian, on Australian EBAs, based in DRW and BNE. I'm not too sure about EBAs for tech crew but when I was with Adagold, we had a number of Aussie pilots based at BNE.
Thank god Adagold are finally out of the picture.
The crews and ops support people were fine, but the company is dodgy as hell.
At least ATN are an operator, utilizing their own aircraft and crew. A long term charter broker lease for these operations is just ridiculous and does not represent value for money for the taxpayer.
