Having just found this site not long ago, I think it is brilliant. I too lost my father in this crash and think what Mike Pero is doing is great. It will give a lot of people a chance to fly over the site that they would not otherwise have the chance to do. This is something Air New Zealand should have done or offer to do along time ago. As for ANZ contacting all the families about apologies etc, I for one nor my family have not heard or have had contact from ANZ since day one.

My partner Robyn lost her mum on that ill-fated flight TE901.

 

She begged her mum not to go on the flight because she thought something may happen e.g. the wheels may fall off. One of the last things Jean said was to Robyn's cousin that she hoped Robyn was alright as she didn't want her to go on the flight.

 

I see to this very day the long suffering Robyn endures over losing her mum at 16 years of age & am astounded at the paltry sum she recieved as compensation for the loss of her mum's contribution towards her schooling fees. I don't mean to express compensation in monetary terms but in assisting in closure for Robyn of which there is none still to this very day.

 

We concur with Daves words above, Robyn also has not had any contact, apology or support from Air NZ since day one, so Dave, you are not alone in this matter.

 

Robyn has long expressed the desire to visit the crash site & we fully support Mike Pero's endeavour to help bring closure to family & friends. We are absolutely positive as to Mike's good intentions.

 

Memorials are erected with small white crosses by members of the public on our nations roads for those lost on our highways. I'm sure these sites are visited by grieving family & friends for some sense of closure. I know, a logistical nightmare, but wouldn't it be wonderful for all those family & friends that wished to do so, attend a service on the mountain to assist in the healing process?

re air new zealand contacting you if you had expressed interest or objection to the flights by the goverment ( NOTE goverment not air new zealand by 6 family members ) your contact details would have been on thier current data base i have been in contact  re the flight to antartica by family members and now recieve inforamtion about things you need to email them

so many families have moved changed names and after 30 years trying to track down so many people is hard it requires victims families to contact them as well  - the person any family member wishing to go on the erebus victim data base can contacat Rob Fye personal assistant vis this email [email protected] . 

They are very open to updating famlies if they have your details we too felt like you until the issue of how families felt about going to the ice was raised as long as you contacted them they have fully informed those of the process details of the planned trip and the planned events of the anniversary

good luck contact them as they have a dvd coming out about the 30th anniversary events all you need to do is let them know your contact name, email plus postal address for the dvd and how many copies you would like for your family

take the opportunity to be on the data base it is a start for all may it all be 30years on but life, understanding and maybe some form of forgiveness has to sart somewhere and maybe Rob is trying to take the lead in a positive direction i do relise we all have opionions of the events and i too was directly involved but am willing to give the chance

good luck let us know how you get on via this site x o x o
