I love this quote from the Australian:
"In 1985 he was approached and appointed general manager of the then government-owned Trans-Australian Airlines, having worked as a senior lawyer and an executive and lobbyist in the mining industry. He was typically modest about his credentials. "I didn't know anything about airlines but they convinced me it didn't matter," he later recalled.
Say it all really....
