Hmm - and how hard did ba's beancounters plead with Airbus? Jolly convenient scapegoat for the lords, suits and Skippy to blame when it gave them the golden opportunity to discontinue Concorde services they'd been looking for all along.
"Don't blame us - it was Airbus." Methinks they do protest too much........
I note from the Concorde bulletin board that I'm not alone in boycotting ba for business travel.....or for any other form of travel, for that matter.
