Even more astounding and pathetic is his 'rationale' in twisting Airbus' arm in order to gain bigger access to the European market.
Airbus sells airplanes, not German airport slots! You fork over x-million Dollars, you get an airplane in return. That's the deal, regardless of who Airbus' shareholders (i.e. Germany) are!
Sadly AB has not outgrown the 'second hand camel bazaar' mentality yet...
It must be real fun to work for such a complete clown.
