I understand why you guy's feel bitter about what happened with XL.
But muddying the name and reputation of an airline that is trying to make headway in these difficult times is uncalled for.
I really don't think you hold much respect for your former workmates or their future, as you appear persistant and relentless in your desire to see Viking fail, purely because of its link to former XL directors.
PW is still solvent and trading, still in the travel industry. So what.
If your a plumber and your company/business goes tits-up, your not gonna hang up your blow torch and try something new whan all you know is plumbing. You go back to what you know, hopefully lesson learned, pick up the pieces and start again.
XL left a void that could be filled.
Viking was an airline that was investable, that could grow to fill that void. I'm sure it will.

On a personal note, i was left with next to buggerall last September just like everyone else. BALPA .....Well its already been said, "effing useless."
What i didn't do was sit down crying into my cornflakes and wondering why!
So please, put away the Phil Wyatt vodo dolls' and stop torturing yourselves.
