How people all forget. When JB went to Virgin he was held up as the messiah! Very pleased you all were that you had stolen him away from Qantas after he missed out on the top job there.
Even Qantas people were crying in their beer that they had got the wrong bloke.
So if he had got the job you ask? My guess Qantas would be in much the same place as it is now and so would Virgin unless they didn't try to take on Qantas full on. Virgin just does not have the economy of scale Qantas does which really hurts when things get tough.
