Wikipedia

The all-singing all-dancing wikipedia has thought of this already

For those who prefer a more positive outlook on life

Category:Airlines by year of establishment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Those who are somewhat more morbid can look at

Category:Airlines by year of disestablishment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Why dont you forward the summary to all those who have lost theirs livelyhoods?

What is the point of rubbing salt into the wounds?

If you have a morbid facination, do the research yourself.

But please, keep your 'interesting' insensitive results to yourself.

SHAME ON CREWCOSTUNDERCONTROL

It is undoubtedly tragic for their employees that airlines, especially in such numbers, go under but this is the reality of the world we live in. He's hardly dancing around people made redundant sticking his tongue out and slagging them off, he's just asking for a list of airlines that have gone under this year. Interesting reading? Yes it could be considered so. Interesting doesn't necessarily mean joyous. You seem to be quite fond of leveling shame at people kick the tires. Grow up.

You'd be happy to have a list of companies that have done well so is the done thing just to ignore the ones that havn't? I hope to god that you are not in a position of power in any business because if you're prepared to sweep under the carpet the fact that airlines are dropping like flies then who knows what you'd be capable of.

EDIT: I'd put a big banner up here saying "SHAME KICK THE TYRES" but then I'd end up looking a bit silly...

I have lost my job twice as a result of airline failure. I am more than aware of the pain, been there bought the tshirt and all that. No its not much fun having to sell your car or ask mum and dad for handouts and phone your creditors and tell them you can't pay the phone bill along with the sense of personal failure and shame going to the job centre for £47 a week!!

All I asked was for a list of airlines, this will be used in a business related communication for the benifit of other pilots!!!

Get off my case..
