So what is it? What is his big picture, his plan, his vision for QF 3 years from now?
I don't about 3 years, but by 2020 Bruce wants to have up to 400 aircraft (20% of the LCC intra-Asia market) in in a series of & airlines/"franchises" throughout Asia (public information, google the quote), probably as minority owner/operator. This will mean, at best a token service of QF to UK/USA as a gesture toward the QF Sale Act.

Domestically, not sure of the "vision thing", there haven't been enough public gaffes... yet. Be sure of once the international division is dealt with, we will be hearing a lot more about domestic return on capital and a majestic (Asian) orange sunrise.

Third party leasing & contracting is the space to watch.
