Shared a beer last night with a AN bloke (pilot) and his brother. The brother was a executive with AN, and what he told me last night about Joyce, well, it all figures. In AN he was simply a numbers man, a lCC man from GB, but with limited ability, and gave no indication he had the ability to run the national carrier. Well no surprises there. This bloke was astonished that Dixon gave him any creed at all, and wonders WTF Dixon was thinking. He had a totally different opinion about Borgetti, and whilst stating the bloke could be a little , he really knows his stuff, and would have had QF humming along by now. This of course adds to the frustration, and listening to this bloke, and his story about AN and the what the ar#eho%#s did to it, including Joyce, it made me feel more than uneasy. This fella is now working with CX, and could not be happier, with the way the airline is going and the CEO he works under. Very interesting to hear from a bloke that was right up there, his despair about AN and what he would and could do with QF. The one good thing he did say is don't give up, there are others circling, good men who know their stuff, and as he said, leading QF is one of the best CEO jobs in the country, and one of the most prestigious, he gives Joyce three months at the most. Lets hope he is right.
