Last precisions, again from the same source, "LE SOIR" newspaper, from friday 18th. Indeed, Branson is up to make the investment into DAT through Virgin Atlantic, but the money isn't supposed to reach DAT's account until the merge with VEX is fully complete... We'll see!
On the other hand, it seems like there is a whole story going on behind this with Virgin atlantic willing to take back slots owned by DAT at EGLL, and DAT pretending to have a long haul potential with Virgin Atlantic, the show goes on...
By the way, the person speaking to me about "VG", is that the belgian project Van Gaever? If yes, then it has nothing to do with VEX...
