The Death of British Aviation
Apologies for the dramatic title, but it may not be much of an exaggeration.
The media have featured nothing but doom pronouncements on layoffs and airline closures.
Why has there been zero support for our critical industry from either the Transport Minister, Grant Shapps, or his junior underling the Aviation Minister, Kelly Tolhurst?
More importantly, what can we take as a professional group to help stop the rot before it is too late? I fear many pilots, engineers, crew, and office staff will never work for an airline again. This is a tragedy.
