Rufiji They were grounded on gross safety violations and must reapply for an AOC, however I would agree the political scenario you mention is real , the Guptas should go to jail for the fuel scandal i read in the times.

Fjetcrazy, interesting if it were a permanent grounding, but isn't this a political manouvre by Pravin Gourdan to dismiss the board ( corrupted absolutely by the Guptas and state capture) and replace it with one of his own choosing under the guise of maintenance issues, serious as these seem to have been. What would be possibly more revealing would be the plans for Transnet and whether there will be major amputation at Express and Airlink as well as SAA. My take is that culling Express may be difficult on account of the reliance of signicant second tier cities on its route map but that Airlink may have to shed a number of interesting routes.
"Things just happen" and it does appear the FJET have hit an unfortunate run of negative events; but with a large loan to service at increasing rates in the absence of expected revenues and the $5 million still apparently somewhere in the black hole that is the Zimbabwe banking system, does anyone else feel that a further cash call is becoming a possibility. If so interesting if this triggers a take over move by our major partner/shareholderr. With the results looking to be held back until the last possible moment I cannot anticipate anything positive.
Your right Fjetcrazy just looked back at the picture and there were 3 ATR's Lined up on the ground at Toulouse in February
Pj , i thought it was three and not two? � Last nights 1900 DAR JRO departed at 0002 so not cancelled
It Sucks that we are paying for 2 ATR Fastjet branded Aircraft at Toulouse that we could have used to prevent cancelling flights !
Same again tomorrow, one aircraft schedule 1 x MBI 1 x JRO 2x MWA 1x HRE
Tech today, only operated MBI
Can we increase our presence between HRE and JNB by more rotations or a bigger plane than the ER5

Is it definitely happening this time as it's been bookable (albeit briefly) before??? Good news if it is.
This route is bookable from 3RD July

Eurowings launches Windhoek-Munich service.......... https://africa4canadians.ca/eurowings-launches-windhoek-munich-service/
chart wise looks like a buy opportunity.
buxton1, I agree that they have done all of those things - which is why I was positive in terms of their strategy - I'm just not too sure that they were done as well as they could've been, especially in relation to fleet changes. As for expansion (new routes) Mozambique apart, they actually seem worse than Ed & Co at this IMHO.
I was in a rush though I�d missed something.
Buxton, nothing significant about it in my opinion, it actually equates to just two extra rotations a week
I think overall it is a significant increase in the number of flights operated per week by Fastjet and Kigoma seems to be still scheduled to start at the beginning of July
Marksman, we fly to joberg from DAR?
Well you get the jist, was one flight out, still a massive reduction on what was a very busy route, Air Tanzania taking its toll
