Afternoon All,

I see things are getting fruity in here.

The tone of the debate has always been very much the handbags that characterise Boeing v Airbus.

Both Kulula and 1Time do face some big decisions soon as their fleets are aging and inefficient compared to the B738 which has the lowest fuel cost per seat km compared to the competitors.

What irks me though is the cheap thrills that peple like Q4NVS seem to get from the idea of Mango. Quite frankly you're just a bit sad and I'm left wondering whether you want to see a Jacob Zuma, Jeremy Cronin Marxist dream ticket elected to running this country. I'd recommend you read some Adam Smith along side the diet of Karl Marx

that the whole point of the exercise- the long term and sustained profitability of SAA
Deskjocky - The critic would say "at what cost?" How much "investment" does it take, how bottomless is the pit of money? And why no mention of privatisation?
