EASTLAND AIRLINES bye bye bye...
 
Not rumour FACT...

Eastland Airlines have shut their doors in Darwin (& everywhere I believe)... Administration/ Insolvency, whatever...

Shame really the Islands are great...

Now the race is on who will get their first???

until theres an opportunity to kick someone else while they are down....

on another issue, i see you guys are having a family fun day for the cancer society next week, $20 flights!!! good to see that you are doing something for a good cause, and giving those casuals a couple of hours flying each!!

Well this is terrible news lets hope, someone can keep offering a service to the Islands. Is Air Ngukurr aka Wimray still operating there?

TE3:- Not kicking anyone while they are down here. It is simple FACT that they have closed their doors.

Bad luck to any creditors as I don't think anyone will get any $$$

Creditors meeting on Monday.

It will be the Tiwi Islanders and the likes that suffer. Thats why I said the race is on...

It is a pr*ck of an industry Eastland battled on for a while but seriously they were against it:-

Ansett - tookem
East West - tookem
C90 - didn't helpem
Wimray - tookem

I say well done for hangen on for so long.

Thanx for the update HA.

Keep up the good work.....some acknowledge it....

oooops it is a small town!

Hope all the guys who were flying for them will find themselves in the air again very soon. I know some of them worked extremely hard.

It is never good when an operation closes down in this climate.

Keep your chin up.

:ok:

I heard a rumour that NAC is flying in tourists on art tours to BTI without these tourists having a permit to visit. Might be interesting to see what happens when the Tiwi Land Council get back from their trip to Germany...Could be intersting to see what a large (legal) tourist operator on the islands have to say about it too.
