Nope, coz I know that the Irish government are planning a typically Irish solution to the problem - they're apparently going to use taxpayer's funds to buy (at a grossly overinflated price) one of the EI 737-400s apparently as a new Head of State aircraft. Strangely, the aircraft already appears to be owned by the taxpayers!
They seem to think that this will manage to avoid the state subsidy rules ... but will Lola allow it?
