If their business plan was to utlise helicopters from other companies, I'd like to know who is left that they haven't offended to hire them from.

"Special operatives"? Oc:= They're certainly special.

I see the blue and white b3 flogging around the Kimberley piloted by a very special operative.

what sort of 2 bit perm curlers would come up with such a name? what a "limp and lame" attempt at looking half professional! what equipment do they have to use? a rusty hills hoist and a second hand rectal thermometer....we'll probably see these guys in pubs wandering about in their "special Ops" shirts and hats! grooming each others ego's!

Yep, I can see the Police and Emergency services beating a path to their door! I noticed the email address for one of them was …….@rfs.gov.au . Now, if using your government department email address, on a private business website is not guaranteed to impress, I don’t know what is. I’m sure the Rural Fire Service would take a dim view of it! :lol:

The point that is being made, is this company is going about it the wrong way, no one begrudges someone having a go, or trying to build relationships or a business for that matter, but when they go about it like this, it not only makes them look foolish, but also discredits them, the organizations that associate with them, and the departments that they claim to be working for. Using a gov fire brigade email address as a contact is not only unethical and I'm sure not strictly kosher anyhow, but brings discredit to the Fire-brigade for being associated in something that is fast getting a reputation for all the wrong reasons.

Using photos and other information without permission is unprofessional and illegal.

To then put the comments they did on the website when politely asked to remove photos that are not owned by the company is unprofessional and just silly. The colour scheme that suggests they are affiliated with Police and other rescue services is while not illegal (i don't think) is certainly not professional either!

sorry mate, I don't think this one is going to end well. :cool_slp:

A Quick email to the NSW Police and the Fair Trading Commisioner reveals that the use of the Blue and White Chevron as depicted on the Offending web site is quite illegal and requires the Police Commisoners written permision, One would assume they do not have that.. :roll:

In Fact any form of advertising that would suggest they are sanctioned by a goverment agency is again quite illegal. Oc:=

State of the art I don’t think so.

-Ripping off photos of other companies aircraft.

- Using FRS email addresses


- Unauthorised usage of the police blue and white chevron.

Due to the Pettiness of some, the current site has now been blocked. (WTF that’s a great way to build up credibility in the industry. I don’t blame Aero Logistics for being p*ssed off when some Muppets are ripping off photos of their aircraft. Then they have the nerve to put a copyright underneath it.

I’m all for people having a go but are they serious or what.

With Respect is someone holding you against your will and forcing you to read the posts? :wink:

Oh and I don't know the mob in question or have any agenda other than what most others have already stated. I;m far to busy flying in the sand pit.

Dropt flying in the desert guts. :D
