While all the recognised books about Qantas' earlier days are a great read, right now I find them distressing. Our airline was founded by and grew to greatness under leaders, that is men who led, not bonus driven seat warmers.
No, reading Qantas at War, Wings to the World etc. just makes me depressed these days.
I'm a silly old fart who has been with Charlie Q long enough to have met and spoken with Huddy, Red Ned et al. So sad to see us being dismantled piece by piece with malice aforethought. Any further thoughts of mine are likely libellous!!!
