To clarify, BA was using Maersk at the time to develop routes with a view to taking them off them when they reached a certain level of profitability (BHXFCO) totally in breach of the franchise agreement but AP Moller didn't have the balls to stand up to them. Maersk actually had a chance to be BMI Regional in between signings of the franchise agreement but didn't have the foresight (or competent Managing Director) to cut the BA bonds at the time.
Clear enough?
