Kingair or Conquest Trouble in Perth

[EMB120ER]

Just saw a early news report about an aircraft with undercarriage problems in Perth. Any one got the goss

[gaunty]

Mate they should get them bush mechanics on the job to keep em going brother.

White with red tail... orbits over north eastern suburbs.

[Monopole]

White with a Red(ish) tail...... Could be Maroomba.
I did hear it was XMG, but I thought that one was white and blue tail.

Either way, I hope it was all a good outcome.

[Towering Q]

XMG doesn't have a blue tail like the rest of Skippers 441's, I think it still has the Rossair paint job.

[myshoutcaptain]

XMG is direct(no)where's!

[Monopole]

Thats what I thought aswell Myshoutcaptain. I just wasn't going to argue with Mr. Q

[airstream]

It was Maroomba's Kingair maybe they are taking shortcuts in Maintenance !!!!!
They seem to be having a few problems lately

[Towering Q]

XMG is direct(no)where's!

Ah, that would explain why it's parked on the other side of the lot. I thought they had run out of room over at Skippers and were walking the punters across.

What about LBD, is that owned by the same group?

Myshoutcaptain

Melbourne, Alice , Darwin, Perth sounds more like "Direct Every Where" to me.

[Led Zep]

I didn't know that Maroomba owned any Kingairs these days.
LBD is indeed a Direct Air machine. It was a bucket when it was with it's previous owner, can't be much better now. Save for maybe RNAV equipped IIRC.

[Monopole]

It was Maroomba's Kingair

Maroomba do not own a white and red Kingair. You also may wanna watch what you say about cutting corners with maint

I didn't know that Maroomba owned any Kingairs these days

Dont those two (are they 350's) belong to Maroomba?

[BrazDriver]

Direct Anywhere, was referring to the aircraft!

[dreamjob]

So, does anyone know what actually happened?
