RE Manx2
The management structure has not changed that much as far as I am aware Noel Hayes still has the same large majority shareholding in the new company as he did in the old.
I remember a quote from Wellington in the Sharpe series when the regiment lost the Kings Colours:- "Change the name remove the shame"
The pilots should not take all the blame the flight ops manager should not have allowed it to leave. If he had ordered a stand down for an hour they would probably all be alive now. Same as putting them both together and why did the other co-pilot have to go to BCN for an English proficiency test surely he could have done it in Belfast.
