(1) Yes, I am aware of challenges facing the whole airline industry in the current economic environment.
(2) Generally, the regular passenger transport routes in Western Australia cater to the needs of the resources sector, the tourism sector and communities or a mixture of these.
Overall, it is too early to assess what the long term impact of the global economic situation will be, but the situation is being closely monitored.
