The new airport chairman will be Gerry Walsh, former chairman of Bord Gais.
On the plus side, he's a very experienced businessman.
On the minus, he has no aviation experience and was appointed by Noel Dempsey.
Still at least there's a chairman in place now.
The other board appointees are Dick Lehane, a former chief executive of EMC and Annette McNamara, a former primary school teacher and former Fianna Fail councillor. Unfortunately, the latter smacks of the type of cronyism we don't need to see.
