Merged: The G Dixon Thread
Deja, they will have to be reappointed to the board at the next QF shareholder AGM, however, they will have already been given the nod by the major institutional investors so there is no way that mum & dad investors can sway the appointments.
Looks like Richard Pratt may end up in gaol for what his company has done. How does Dixon not even get investigated??

This rot goes all the way to the top echelons of government.
That's why Geoff is teflon coated.
New government and look at the newbie who was just appointed, Ms Ward and then look who her previous boss was.

Need you ask? Change is as regular as night follows day. From the Australian Article on this appointment:
A certain MS (?) Keating was once a QF Board member unless I'm mistaken.

But it is her extensive connections in politics and in the corporate world that will make her a particularly useful addition to the Qantas board, particularly given a Labor government in Canberra. That close web of relationships includes one of her former fellow directors on the Allco board, Sir Rod Eddington, a key business adviser to the Labor Government and head of its infrastructure advisory board.

Geoff Dixon You Must GO
Dear Mr Dixon,
You have successfully destroyed this once great Airline. You have divide and seggregated this fantastic icon. Off shore maintenance is a real success, what you save $1 and spend $5. I recent times we have had 3 major incidents in the air and the $60 million cargo fine. That is my favourite. Somebody else took the fall for that. However, at the end of the day you are the CEO.Please leave and in monopoly terms go direct to jail do not collect $200 or in your case your sizeable retirement payout. Geoff Dixon you are the Weakest Link GOOOOODBYYYYE...................................

3 major incidents. You are an idiot Oldsmithy. U have no basis. You have jumped on the GD bashing bandwagon. I thought this site was for proffessional pilots not die hard wannabes.

I wonder if there was an agenda behind the sale of QF. I mean if it were sold to Allco and now they are struggling, what are all those 787 and perhaps in the future A380 slots worth? very unlike GD to place such a large order isnt it? especially in the lead up to the announced takover 
GD could sleep easy at night if QF rolled over, after all the Aussie taxpayer would bail it out as a matter of pride to keep the roo flying. The red tail is almost as iconic to Australia as football (AFL) and meat pies!

CEO
I love CEO's that destroy successful companies leave and still take their payout. What a joke. Dicko you do a disgraceful job leave and are you getting/taking any cash. The answer should be no. The truth will be some what different.
