Yes, I know it's an old thread.

Heard Wrightsair had a change in ownership/management a while ago.

Any update on Wrightsair and how they are going now?

Pretty sure its still owned by Trevor Wright though he is no longer the chief pilot.

They are bigger than ever and have multiple bases these days, the main one being William Creek. I think they also operate out of Wilpena airstrip, Coober Pedy, Cairns and maybe another one or two bases.

They have also recently acquired one or two Cessna Caravans, so their operation is definitely growing.

If you are going to head to William Creek for a chat, make sure you have an Optus SIM card in your phone as they have recently received mobile coverage for the first time and Optus is the only provider that works there.
