This is not the first time you have spoken longingly of a reunion of JB and Q.
Like many dreams, it is just that.

I have no idea what the arrangements are, but I would seriously doubt that JB would have been appointed on the basis that he could walk away anytime soon. Offer him the harbour bridge by all means, but the reality is, he is probably not able to accept.

Assuming that he was able to walk away from Virgin, why would he want too. A bit like a poor besotted fool crawling back to a lover that has kicked him in the nuts. Much better to let the bitch rot away. Especially as he has found someone else to cherish.
Whilst I don't think he is of the extreme ego driven breed that seems to predominate the upper management levels of Q, he must get a hell of a buzz out of watching AJ self destruct whilst he himself is seen to be building a worthwhile and viable airline, acting with compassion and integrity, and turning pretty good coin to boot.

Your time would be better invested dreaming of that big fish you have been after for years.
