Gday,
Haven't spoken to Koru since I moved back to the US. He is now a Captain at Virgin Australia, on the NZ side of the Tasman.
I'll see if I can get a hold of him.
You might want to try Pprune but put a flak jacket on. Have a look at Virgin Australia NZ. When I left the mothership (Virgin Australia), the word was that the NZ side were losing loads of FO's to the ME3.
I'll PM you if I find Koru.
