I've noted The Australian doing more like infomercials on Virgin.
Sydney Morning Herald or Fin Review are a better option.
4 Corners or The Investigators in the 80s were a favourite of mine.
Who can really tell what the numbers mean. What I do know is that QF are posting gigantic profits nearly every single quarter. Their share price has gone from just over $1 to a close of $4.58 within the last 3 years.
People like to say QF is all creative accounting. I say brand new 787's rolling in and starting new routes isn't creative accounting, it's a reality.
I completely disagree with those who are already criticising the new guy. There is indeed a change of guard going on and some of the new top jobs are going to some highly regarded people (SA included).
