VA is flying all of the WA RPT routes with B738. VARA is just doing the FIFO charters.

Like REX Alliance presently they have an oversupply of experienced pilots to chose from, up to them to decide what/who should work out best for them....and why. Cheers |

Operationally the culture is sound.I think you’ll find a considerably different ‘mentality’ amongst the pilot group than that in the (ex) Village. The two I know that have gone over would both be amongst the best operators you’d find. Alliance could do a lot worse than bolting on some of that. Like you said,personal perspective.. |
Could Alliance fly some international routes with E-jets for Virgin Mark 2 ?
If so where to ? Don't think their F100s can make NZ/Fiji nonstop with a full load, but can the Alliance e-jets ? Some former Virgin Mark 1 routes like BNE/DUD, NTL/AKL etc. might be perfect for the e-jets. |
They are. Ballarat to Tehran. Via Indonesia, Thailand and India.

“Don't think their F100s can make NZ/Fiji nonstop”...........could barely do Norfolk Island!
Embraer, no idea. |

With the recent tie up of Alliance and Virgin does that mean all the E190 slots will go to ex Virgin E190 pilots? Knowing how mates employ mates does that mean very few Alliance F100 pilots will get a position on the 190??

Some mail from over in the West suggests there is some guy who thinks he's running VARA seems to know a thing or three about Ejets - just ask him - so why wouldn't they have tapped that genius resource??? (once again - just ask him - apparently the lads and lassies say the sort of guy who just knows, well, everything)

The E190 would do the majority of the flying under the proposed agreement with Virgin. The E190 has the legs to do BNE-HIR and my guess this route wouldn’t start until around April next year.
Most of the proposed and some of the former wet lease routes were previously operated by the Virgin E190s. Alliance will be Virgin's Cobham. |

https://www.accc.gov.au/media-releas...aises-concerns The ACCC is continuing to investigate whether this acquisition is likely to have the effect of substantially lessening competition. Qantas has provided an undertaking not to acquire any further interest in Alliance until the investigation is completed. |
