I use to belong to CC89; when Mr Walsh graced himself on BA I joined BASSA! Go figure.

Now after the massive global cock up on the opening of T5 in which the said gentleman said "the buck stops with me" but in fact 2 other managers heads rolled, the buck didn`t really stop with him but surely with that mess he should have gone(?)
The fines.. another manager (who I believe also ran for CEO post?) his head rolled.
So the bucks or mistakes never seen to stick to him.
Question? Why?

was it he had this plan in the making already, credit crunch/ressestion here or not? He`d make BA like Aer Lingus? Now a basketcase. He got removed by the Irish Government because he was such an excellent CEO?

Just wondering if his was on the cards all along.

If things are this bad why wasn`t part time etc offered straight away like after Sept 11th?
His bee has always been to crush any union in the company whether the company is taken to its knees.
As for the NAPS pension will it be even shorter when crew leave and take their pension with them? Less members bigger short fall possibly.
