It shows how inept you must have to be to qualify to be on an Airport board,
Trying to sabotage your best bet at using your half empty terminals in the short term by blocking in leased, unused aircraft. Brilliant! It is actually the first thing that has got Qantas and Virgin working together again.
And if I was a bored American aircraft lease owner with no money coming in for my aircraft I would have a crack at suing the relevant airport boards for a few million dollars.
I have a feeling there will be a couple of Airport boards getting a few calls from the politicians this weekend and the nonsense will stop....but the damage has been done.
