HMY in limbo.
Zoom positions are fill " Who you know" there, and forget about it until further expansion.
Canada West in stand by until spring (NO money)

I now definately know that HMY Airways is up and running, and they have a Boeing 757 in their colors, I believe they are planning to expand the fleet.
Zoom Airlines I believe has secured two ex-Monarch Airlines Airbus A320s for start-up. Don't know when they are starting though. Rumours have it they want to use the Airbus A300 as well in their fleet?
And Canada West do have a website. Not got the address at present, but it has pictures of mock-up 757s and a brief description of the company.

I've been told that the airline is using Monarch Airlines Airbus A320s for start-up and are using the aircraft in a kind of hybird scheme, with the "old" Monarch yellow and black cheatlines, and the Zoom "Z" on the tail, for the time being.
With the A300 rumour, I've been told these are coming from Monarch or ex-Prime Airlines aircraft to operate trans-con and midi-hauls.
