Hot off the presses:

Latest news is that even the Banks and the Government favour a loan - but to Crossair, to basically buy out what is of value from Swissair and to then let it fold.

One of the Banks conditions seem to be not to throw good money after bad, and therefore not to pay anything to Sabena or LTU

If your German is up to it - try this:

You may find the FT a bit easier, but less detailed: http://news.ft.com/ft/gx.cgi/ftc?pag...id=IXLI0L9Z1BC

Hope somebody salvages something - even if its only bread and butter with no jam any more - its a mighty long train ride back from here in HK even though it is perfectly possible - its not the commute I need.
