Guys - stay on thread. Leave Al Cru for another day. This one hasn't drifted yet...don't let it.
It has been focused and one of the most insightful I have read.

From a different angle - one of the more significant by-lines of the results is from a business journo's perspective....in that EK had a massive collapse in profitability from 1st half to 2nd half of the year.

If the Co. was public, the stock would have been slaughtered due to a 50% plunge in money making over the course of a very short period of time.

Very, very few CEO's would make it through 'the Boards' performance review on that kind of wild swing without a "force majeure" event.

Lets face it - if you can get a final warning for being sick..or liquidate the the Training Dept leadership for doing a good job...

...what in the good Lords name is going to happen at the top level with this kind of profit reverse?

Any guesses? Surely they are trembling at their ominous future.
