Great news the Scottish or is it the Greeks with their Iraqui investor are going to fly to Iraq in a Tristar.

Wrong.

I didnt know that Iraq had joined the EU so I dont think that if there is business flying to Iraq from the UK that we in the UK airline industry will allow it. Remember 5th freedom.

Of course the main man could set upsome spive Iraqui AOC and sub service Air "what the hell are they called " for a limited period.

But is the new Iraqui government going to want to see an airservice with a geriatric Tristar.

Maybe the main man will rent a Portugues Tristar with Greek Pilots and mixed Arab and Glaswegian cabin crew. It would be the like the UN. Never on time, full of arguments and ineffective but the fights would be great at the night stops.

I cant wait to buy my ticket
