Wow that cheat-line looks really good. I used to think that each successive scheme was better than the last but that looks pretty fine and will really stand out from the masses.

Another distinguished scheme was this one:

However I highly doubt Qantas would ever concede to anything other than 'Qantas' being displayed on the side of an aircraft. TAA it seems has been relegated into oblivion.

As Fris B. mentioned, a sensible (non-Boston School of Consulting or Irish equivalent) retro board would be wonderful.

Of particular note: Qantas’ chief financial officer Gareth Evans has written an opinion piece for The Age, in which he says the airline won’t be conceding any of its 65 per cent market share to Virgin.

“Imagine someone saying Woolworths should start closing stores in response to the threat from Coles,” he said.

“Anyone who advocates this kind of approach simply does not understand the way business works.

We plan to keep improving and strengthening our competitive advantages.”

Qantas has decided 65 per cent is where it’s drawing the line in the sand, convinced it cannot lose this ground to its arch rival Virgin Australia.

So they almost did immediately concede the 65 percent which by his own arrogant words means this man does not understand the way business works!

It beggars belief these people are running Qantas. With such blatant acts of stupidity evident what goes on that we don't hear about?
