Aviator,

Please do not try to deny SAA has had it's begging bowl out with the tax payer
While I don't deny that SAA has received a fair amount of government assistance, I am just curious if you're still worried about it being YOUR tax money? I recall a similar post a while back where you mentioned that you still had interests in the country that helped fund SAA via your tax despite you living in the sandpit.

Are they still wasting your money or have you managed to divest yourself and are now just complaining as a matter of habit?

PS. No arguments about their creative accounting either.
PPS. I won't be taking you up on the round of beers. If I recall correctly the whole savings drive was done specifically to enable SAA to qualify for a recapitalisation loan.
PPPS. Garlic doesn't help but African potatoes do.
