Simple. They sensed that VA was about to collapse and thought they would be the one to fill the void. They admitted their business model depends on VA ceasing operations in a leaked investor presentation. So they started up their jet operation with taxpayer dollars and hope that they will outlast VA over the coming months, otherwise they’ll cease ops and as John Sharp has already demonstrated will save face by having a massive sook at all their competitors for not “playing fair”.....
