Default Alphajet?

Was going through Wikipedia today while bored at work and came across this, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AlphaJet_Airlines with regards to a new Domestic Airline that was wishing to start this year, I couldn't find anything on here about it so thought I would post and see if anyone has heard of this Airline starting up.

All I can gather is that they are from the Pegasus Airlines Pty Ltd group and wish to target buisness travelers (didn't they learn anything from OZJET Aussies want cheap fares no matter what type of traveller they are)

Website, http://www.alphajet.com.au/

VivaJet - This was the little Indian fella who had the company registered to a run down old house in suburban Melbourne wasn't it?

Sure was then the website went offline for a while and came back as AlphaJet. I highly doubt it will develop into anything though.

Couldn't imagine a worse time to start an airline in Oz, with the major carriers scaling back staff, destinations and frequency it would almost be an assured disaster. Especially for a niche business-only airline.

Default Airlines

Who remembers Gold Airways? Weren't they going to operate a low cost business class service?
