206 Jock - I wasn't suggesting that any trustees of Air Ambulance Charities were "myopic idiots" - just that if one take a helicopter view (sorry!) of the national need for these services one would probably take a very different view of the necessary organizational structure.
That having been said, it does appear that the trustees in this case have, to put it mildly, taken a very relaxed view about what is, at best, a very clear case of conflict of interest.
