I re summarise my point

The motor industry is a protected species by the way of special levies. The airline industry is not.
The motor industry is handed millions of dollars to remain competitive. The airline industry is not.


Implement a form of levy on all airline passengers and hand it back by way of incentives and subsidies to Australian airlines.

You may well call the tooth fairy but I am telling there will be no Australian based International Airline unless the Government steps in. The support of the Government is needed, other wise Qantas will just end up another Ansett
