It was a big family when I joined in the mid 80's

Peter Sutch was the Managing Director, and probably the best Airline in the world

Then when Peter left as part of the Swire Group to continue his career, Rod Eddington took over and the rot set in

The Company started Operation Better Shape (OBS) which should been called Operation Bull****

Turnbull took over from Eddington, and it went further down the tubes

I don't think the Airline recovered, to what was a great era in aviation

I wish the present lads, good luck and hope Carrie Lam steps down as Chief Executive of Hong Kong

Cathay is just another Chinese Airline these days as far as Management is concerned, from what I see
