They own majority shareholding in a couple of these companies with a couple on thousands aircraft and pilots from many countries. What happens when owners decide democratic process and population refuse to give them the result they want and act on it. What then ?
Say what now? Not even sure what i just read....
If companies do not like the politics of the day they can choose to suck it up and go on with business, or decide to close up shop, or do other types of business. If pilots and employees do not like what is going on they can vote with their feet. I am not worried about large numbers of rogue mercenaries with fleets of aircraft- but not sure if that is what your were implying.
