Now that the actual question has been posted, I stand by my response.
Pollee’s were merely asked whether Premiers should have the right to close a border, without any reference to the reason. That the majority voted “yes” doesn’t surprise me in the slightest.
But to claim that the poll indicates that the majority of Australians support all current border closures is a disingenuous mis-use of statistics which is sadly not atypical of politically biased media, or indeed, nongs

Don't fall for the old trap of thinking that 1500 can't possibly be a reasonably representative sample for a population of 25.5 million. Statistically, 1500 is more than sufficient to return results with a 3.5 per cent margin of error at a 99 per cent confidence level. If you're prepared to take your confidence level down to 95 per cent, with the same margin of error, you can get by with roughly half that number of participants.

All in AUD:
$4-5 million for a Dash 8-100
$300,000 for a Jetstream 31
$1-1.2 million for a Jetstream 32
$1.6 million for a Jetstream 41
$950,000 AUD for a Metro III

Must be a current checkie approved by CASA for 737NG. Rules out all the VA wide body people (most were ex 737 checkies as well) although getting your hands on any of them would be gold. Leaves the VAI checkies only, again IMHO any appointment there would be very beneficial to REX. 18mths contract would be good too, just in time to come back maybe or stay on and try your hand.

I wonder what the reason for a being current Check Captain is? Your check approval is only applicable to your current AOC. Once you resign that approval disappears and you have to reapply for another approval under a new AOC. In essence there is no difference between someone who is a Check Captain today vs someone who was a Check Captain 3 years ago.

Apart from currency...
Would have been interesting really...the Labor party sold Australian Airlines to QANTAS in the 1990's, and started the sale of QANTAS by selling 25% of it to BA in 1993.
AND Aerial you consider that Govt purchasing VA with a debt in excess of $7 BILLION would have been a good idea?
Seeing how Governments run, that would have been a 70 Billion black hole in no time.
And really, even the Labor party (if they had of been in power) would not be that stupid...they are just saying what you want to hear...its called being in opposition and just having thought bubbles, and preaching to people that believe that those in Government are there for the electorates good (hahahahaha...yeah right!!!).

Old longlegs is on to it, or so they thinks - RFI for AAD/Skytraders A319 Operation out
Guessing if your a Liberal politician you better brace. What the junior coalition partner has been up to is going to make interesting reading at a Royal Commission.

So, theoretically, REX could engage a couple of B737NG Examiners, induct them into the Company and they could be training or checking within days of joining. Or even contract the work out. Practically, because of CAR 217, CASA would have their hands all over the process to ensure it met with their approval.
If REX engage enough of the right people and throw enough money at it, six months to add the B737 to their AOC is entirely doable.
