Less Hair asked:
"I wonder how market predictions could be so off the mark like this time? Travel grew as expected but finally midsized twins harvest the market."

Sean Doyle said, emulating Tim Clark:
​​​​​​“The A380 isn’t flying at the minute but it is in our plans for the future rebuild of the airline,”

I ask:
How many times will such megalomaniac dudes at the helm repeat the same mistakes? It was written on the wall (and commented so by many) in 1990 and it will remain so even if the industry experiences a sound rebound after Covid. You simply can't beat physics in conjunction with economics.
