Thumbs down

Yeah good one - stick the boot in.

Ansett in problems, Qantas not turning a trick, ImPULSE quoted as not having one. Surely the travelling Australian public would prefer a healthy and booming Australian aviation industry promoting cheaper fares and better quality service. Or is it easier to mow those tall poppies down - lest we forget when its all gone - a homegrown industry providing jobs and revenue for Australians soon to be diluted.

But then again this is the real world and 'nice' stories dont sell newspapers.

My apologies to those who may be sensitive to the ANZAC day reference, but its rather a poignent time to think about the past and consider what might be the future for the Australian Aviation industry - this is a turning point and I'm not convinced that everyone will come out of this.

What happened to a pride?

thanks for the post newswathcher - nothing personal against you - rather another journalistic story wasting ink on the page.
