QLINK parking Q300s at Tamworth?
Just saw a photo from a mate in Tamworth on the "facepalm" with about five dash 8-300s parked on the grass/aprons at Tamworth...
What's the story? Parking aircraft can't be a good sign?

rex? why go to rex from qlink? less pay isn't it as well as worse equiptment
SBB,SBJ,SBT,TQY,TQY all stored in TMW.
It would've been a handy idea to use one as a spare in ADL seeing as they've gone U/S quite a few days recently and delayed a few pax to/from WYA.
It's not like it's a new market that they're trying to get traction in or anything. Oh wait...
--------------
Also a few on the hold file for Cobham and a few thinking of taking LWOP to leaving flying altogether for a year or two.
Massively short of Q400 FO's in BNE and CNS recently but that'll hopefully sort itself out when the Q300 pilots who are moving across go through the sim. Still an excess of pilots in the grand scheme of things but at the current rate they are leaving they may to looking in 2016.

Can any of these Q300's be utilised in next few months or do they all require major checks ?
Ask, as we have some work for such aircraft for about 8-12 hours per week ex SYD.
Who precisely would you ask ?
If anyone knows can they PM us.

Surely, if you're seriously interested in leasing one or more of those aircraft, and assuming they are stored due excess capacity - the 'gatekeeper' will put you through to the responsible person.

Now how about we get back on topic?
