Nothing wrong with VAS, they're trying, it's Peel and Peel alone that was the problem
Rather a sweeping statement, that Peel were inept, and that their judgement in supporting the sad individuals with fancy titles who ran DTV, and who in history will no doubt be ranked alongside those of "Nero" as to their achievments is totally accepted.
However VAS surely had to see what was coming in doing their due diligence on their acquisition from Peel Airports. After all was it not mooted that the prime reason of Peel to dispose of it's airport division (though not before time) was to move it to those that had greater experience in the running of airports, whilst leaving Peel to concentrate on what it did best
"Land developments"
Reality is more likely that DTV were thrown in as part of the "bundle" and that even VAS have met their match.
As an aside then it is interesting to note the future illustrious carreers
NOT! of those DTV high rollers that were eventually found out.
