Why didn't Europeans form GSS (or otherwise bid the BAWC contract) on their own, instead of Atlas having to shop around for a UK grocery store heir to put up some money and pretend he was the controlling interest?
Off topic, all good in theory but everyone knows that BAWC were pulling the strings. If BAWC wanted to give the flying to someone else they would have. Instead, they wanted to stay with Atlas so the creation of what is the virtual airline of GSS was born, a company with no assets apart from a few desks and chairs and a majority 51% UK investor that is/was Mr Tesco to keep it legal.

Back on topic, I hope all goes well for the TNT boys and girls in this takeover/merger.
