No, AF, you don't understand! It was everyone else's fault, all those nasty other airlines, the Internet, the aviation commentators, the refuellers and travel agents and a myriad of others! Not my fault at all, and I know where we went wrong last time. I deserve another chance! And you know what? I bet, down the track somewhere, he does get another chance. And you and I already know what the outcome is likely to be.
