Back to where it began before Brindabella took over! Good to see them having another crack at the market

Nice looking livery very smart. They could look at serving ADL to NTL as well.

NTL to ADL in a 31???

[Hugh Jarse]

I don't think so :D

[Stephen Brown]

Refuelling stop in Broken Hill??

[Jarden S]

I thought it could make it as its range is 1260 km.
Anyway good to see them start up a few old routes from former airlines.
