What irks me is that when DM came from EK, I thought, "here's a chap who knows...
The pilots thought .....a chap who can expand and open new routes to new places we haven't gone before.
The staff thought ..... a chap who we can believe in and begin to build trust with management again.
The investors thought... a chap who can grow the airline and cut unreasonable costs without strikes.
The competition thought....we might be in for some real battles.
The public thought....here's our national airline with a chance to be proud with it again.
The management thought......<blank>....let's not do anything different.
For a man who promised so much to so many, has managed to disappoint all. It could all have been so different - and
that's the tragedy.
