		A relaunched Ansett will clearly be a much leaner airline than the previous one, using just a quarter of the 16,000 staff and operating primarily on the key trunk routes.

	★ Air New Zealand Information and Pictures
		Ansett remained profitable, but was having increasing difficulty in finding a way to rationalise its cost structure, and badly needed a capital injection to replace its elderly fleet.
		Ansett's trading loss for the year had been $NZ165 million (plus another $NZ23 million for Ansett International), or about $NZ8 million a month for most of the year, but with a sudden blow-out to around $NZ40 million a month for the last two months.
		Laid off Ansett workers were eventually paid most of their entitlements, partly from an $A150 million compensation package offered by Air New Zealand in return for having the ASIC enquiry dropped, but mostly by a $10 per-seat levy imposed by John Howard's government on Australian airline passengers.

	A dangerous deterioration in air safety in Australia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The airline is already suffering a sharp drop in its profit margins and a substantial decline in its market share due to increased competition.
		Ansett's maintenance crisis is, in fact, the logical outcome of a ten-year process that has resulted in the curtailing of direct air safety monitoring in favor of a system of “self regulation'' by the airlines themselves.
		Ansett's crisis is symptomatic of the state of air safety throughout the aviation industry, with all the major airlines subject to the same competitive pressures and investor demands.
