Convair 580

Where are the two Convair's that Air Pioneer being operating for Toll disappeared to? Haven't seen them at Sydney or heard them on the airwaves since Christmas? I know freight is a bit patchy in January, they using something smaller?

PDW is over in Palmerston North getting maintenance done. PDX was in the hangar last time I saw her. They'll be back to their usual runs by mid January.
