Proplever - never a truer word spoken.

Brett Godfrey must have had a rocket blown up his backside from Sir Dick after that righteous cluster f#ck.
Would have loved to have been a fly on the wall during that bollocking!
Not only did it delay their start up and cost them not only loss of face and embarrassment, but alot of money went the way of AN and QF whilst the VB jets sat on the apron.
Pax and Travel Agents were also pi$$ed off royally.

Even Gerry McGowan had the presence of mind to employ the CASA guy that dealt with that area when they submitted their AOC proposal and had it approved on time.

I agree Godfrey has ridden the wave so to speak, but with a declining share price and the threat of Jetstar nipping at its heals he has yet to prove himself under adversity.
