A remarkable set of co-incidences.

Mick Toller told the national press club that casa had done everything right, and the proof was that Ansett had been nominated as the worlds second best airline, ahead of
Qantas
Not long after that he shut Ansett down because he said they were not safe.
One of the favourites (a white knight) turns up with a new airline to take up the slack.
Qantas are told to let the newcomer get 30% of the market.
And we thought we had a free market!!!!
We thought aviation regulation was only for safety.!!!
Silly us.
