No more GAM Shrikes to Scone?

Hi all,

Heard the other day that GAM lost their bank run to SCN which I think goes via WMD too. Someone else taking over?

You will find following GAM's history, different "runs" are lost and gained for no particular reason. Alot is due to TOLL trying to work out what best suits them. I didn't think many contracts were signed in these operations anyway. Just a handshake and we will see you on Monday sort of thing. GAM may be a little quieter but they will bounce back bigger---in my opinion.

Didn't know GAM had a run to Camden? Come to think of it, I don't think they ever land at the West Maitland aid either - usually at Maitland aerodrome... Small details do matter in aviation...

It is, but you forgot the full stop after "D", but a nice use of paragraphs though.

Runs aren't the only thing leaving GAMS. heard on the grapevine they have just lost their 7th Dornier pilot to Jetstar. 7 pilots since September is a far chunk of their crew!!! This time next near, regionals will be cancelling flights due to lack of drivers.
