Ansett Australia.. RIP
The colouring book was mad though
I think I first flew on TAA, from Brisbane to Sydney, then connected to a KLM flight to the Netherlands. Would have been about '83.
well virgin Australia got quite large
They filled the void for sure
yeah me too. I specifically remember media covering the collapse of Ansett at the same time as 9/11, which seemed interesting that they thought the two were equivalent.
Ansett went on to exist as a training company for a while. Not sure if they still do.
