Why not? Is it subject to a licencing agreement or some such?

No, I have not tried to navigate around my original comment at all. What I did was point out to you what I actually said. I did not say that he did not have airline experience.
More to the point, is there some part of
'I'll happily concede the point that semantically 'virtually zero airline experience' and seven years experience, mostly at or below manager-level nearly 20 years ago may not be the same thing.' that you are unclear on?

So it is probably worth disclosing here that I was a GM at Ansett when Paul Scurrah joined the business as a manager and when he was later promoted to GM. I've got a pretty fair handle on the relative seniority of the GM role and an equally good appreciation of The Last Days of the Roman Empire deck chair filling that was in train on the Sales side of the house back then.

Super! Then I trust you won't demur further if some of the rest of us want to discuss that?
