At a practice session for the traditional Australia day cricket match the Bar Room Barristers congregated at a shady, convivial watering hole to discuss "ways and means". As usually happens, matters aeronautical were discussed amongst them, the Warbirds dust up.
One of the crowd with a passing interest in AWAL told a tale, which floored everyone there. The yarn, as told is just a bit too recherché for relating on Pprune, but it has the distinct whiff of being just a little more than a dry dusty tale of corporate pushing and shoving.
It appears from the (long and eloquent) report "by T28", the Brisbane court hearing only scratches the surface of something which is potentially very ugly. Seems the Court and board are mulling over a right royal crock of pony pooh. Most of us thought AWAL was a happy, self managing outfit ticking over quietly. Not so apparently.
I notice Phelan withdrew his original piece; so we can assume there is 'paperwork' with unpleasant words flying about the place; but if someone could provide some background information without ending up hip deep in the mess – it would be much appreciated. Particularly by P7 who copped a fair pummelling after the tale was spun. There are some serious beers being bet here, so we await the umpires decision.
