Maybe the "professor" is going to be hosting the QF Board as they go over to NY to hold meetings with senior Airbus and Boeing reps!
Now, I'm obviously missing something here... Oil prices are rising rapidly, "the sky is falling", etc, etc, but the entire Board can fly to the US (I'm sure they'll be travelling economy to allow room for paying customers - you know, the ones that allow us to keep flying!)...
Geez, you'd think there was no such thing as video conferencing, internet, etc, etc... And why does the entire board need to be over there?
"Another bottle of Dom, thanks Charles..."
