Thanks for such a comprehensive and detailed response. Have you been reading Ryanair's anual report, or did you perhaps write it?

The fact that such a rebuttal is felt needed speaks volumes.

What about the banking crisis? They were mostly cash rich but I recall it was the unresolved liabilities that unstuck them...

But what do I know, I'm just a casual observer, so I guess history will have to be my judge.
