Anyone else thinking that Willie Walsh should but out?
Absolutely he should. IAG have called out "an inappropriate use of public money" when it seems unlikely that they know what has actually been agreed between Flybe's owners and HMG.

It's almost like he can't bear the thought that an airline linked with Virgin has had some help.

A number of his airlines will stand to benefit if a change to APD policy does come about.

Having said all of the above, I am still of the view that Flybe's own past senior management are largely responsible for the mess that has resulted. It just reeks of buryheadinsand'itis

I am also of the view that the jobs and the services that Flybe provide were worthy of the assistance (whatever it really is) that has now been forthcoming.
