Danny,
Ive found you,on occasion, to be rather sanctimonious on "protecting" the rights of other contributors,or possibly too eager to cede to the demnads of others,which now,i understand a little better.A lively debate,is not always,and should not be always taken to be potentially defamatory.Powerful,paymasters,make threats,and that is why now I see the dilemma you faced.
The Guvnor,was always contentious,and highly dubious,so well done to highlight this menace to society through PPrune,I think we all commonly loathe the practise of these people,thankfully rather less numbers congregate in commercial aviation management.
Frankly,the ultimate(wrong kind) wanabee,let us hope he stays away a long time.
