...what is it with you people, what the heck did Sir Peter have to do with Ansetts collapse at the hands of ANZ...they were the ones with their hands on the levers, if SQ got hold of AN then Ansett would have used QF as arse-wipe. ANZ would have been making money as well...
IF you would read what is posted, nobody said he did, just that the rot STARTED with him.

and what is it that Ansett was the only one that caused the demise of Compass...wasn't Australian just as culpable in competing with Compass as well, what! AN and TN was supposed to do nothing, just let a competitor errode your customer base
Again you seem to have little knowledge of this.

TN competed with Compass, but in an honest manner, unlike AN. We used TN for all sorts of things, at the market rates. Nobody at Compass minded some good honest competiton, that was why it was started.

and why don't you guys talk about Douglas Reid your hero ceo of Compass MK-II.....didn't he get convicted and sent to jail for stealing millions from the company
Yes, Southern Cross, but that was nothing to do with Compass, OR Ansett for that matter.
