The contract states as I was told is this is what we won't and this is what we will pay. How you do it is up to you.
No don't work for AR btw. Completely independent of anyone. All I've done is up dating what I'm told. And yes a jet is more than capable of performing the operations required. Lots of other country's use them.
What's got to be considered is that the funds available andante a short time loose for someone may end up as a long time gain. Then the politics involved with people that don't won't certain players involved ( Seen that with other government contracts ).
See what happens

I would hope they wouldn't bid with a 146 (no one in SM with any experience on them, have to find a B146 management team for SM when they're already short of B146 experience in Regional), an Ejet on the other hand...

DN NOTAM
There's a Darwin NOTAM for SAR dropping training for CUSTOMS DASH 8 Aircraft, however this may have something to do with the DN AR base contract finishing up at the end of this year. Certainly looking better for Cobham though.
Bottums Up
That's two Australian family aviation companies that have been undercut by foreign companies. Good on ya QLD Gov and AMSA...bunch of w%&kers.

You may buy the cheapest of everything you see, I suspect its a better product that has been offered. Not a 146, not a 135, and not DHC8 and certainly not Dorniers.
