Along the notion of a possibly Chinese connection i revert back to the idea of someone like Changhong who seem to be launching thier brand here at present. In the same fashion as we helped launch LG many years ago.

May be a Chinese Airline will be announced as our new sponsor; stay tuned.

That would be something.

I sure hope it aint Qantas!! What the hell has happened to that Australian icon. They are going to lose a bird out of the sky soon. How much luck can you push. A great example of why certain companies should be run by the Federal Government and not the shareholders. Same goes for Telstra.

This isn't exactly the place for such a discussion. But surely you joke? Id rather Qantas to be having the issues they are having now, than it be owned by the government where taxpayer's would have to fund excessive waste and mismanagement.

Now THAT would be something. Given that 6 flights a day arrive from China each and every day at Melbourne there is huge potential.

( By the way not a single one of those flights is QANTAS. 2nd biggest economy in the world and you can't get a flight there using the national carrier. They wonder why they are falling apart)

Hadnt thought about the airlines bu twith Emirates at the Filth and given our hard work developing a Chinese connection it would be a greta fit. Theyve even got a bit of a red and blue thing happening !!lol

Doesnt surprise me. They arent a patch of their once great self. Very ordinary airline living off yesterday. But they still call Australia home ...? bar a lot of servicing and ownership , and crews. Any how possibly a discussion for another day..lol, in some other thread.

Qantas have recently discontinued the flight from Melbourne to London via Hong Kong and Cathay Pacific have taken it over; that's not the airline btw.

Just read an article about infiniti launching in Australia soon. Infiniti are to Nissan what Lexus is to toyota - ie. their Luxury version. I would hope if we don't have the BoM deal across the line, that Schwabby would have sounded them out

One small error jako13, infiniti is part of Nissan not Mitusbishi.

thanks OD, fixed
