There's a wonderful work of fiction in the form of Virgin's submission to the ACCC available for reading or download from the DJ website. And what a mob of whingers they are! First class cherry pickers if ever there were. Apart from Adelaide/Broome, what have they pioneered? And if they do maintain a monopoly on this route, how long will they last? Anyone can make money operating on prime high density routes but let's see them sink their dosh and tosh into something that's new and requires an investment.

Back to their submission. Aside from some pretty basic spelling mistakes - and they hope to be a credible airline operator - many errors of fact are there to contemplate. I wonder if the AXXX sees beyond their smoke and mirrors. Read for yourselves and then make up your mind as to their objectivity - if it weren't so serious it would be laughable.
