No, sorry, that's nonsense. Jims name is on the AOC as he is the Chief Operating Officer or whatever they call it - the buck stops with him.
MW is a Director (of which there are several).
The stories about the calls to ther airlines have been around for years, and not just about flybe. Most airlines are smart enough to make their own minds up.
Anyway... each can make their own mind up!
I'm sure there will be a pile of resignations later this year.
