Thanks folks. I've ordered my Nuts and look forward to reading it. BTW I worked for Boeing when it too was an inspirational employer - long, long ago!

Worth noting that Herb was actually a founder owner of Southwest, which I feel for any business is a big plus. Somewhat similar to a Gerry Harvey/Clive Palmer etc

If the business goes under then there goes all their cash and most of their pride so it is in their and your interest that the business goes ahead.

However when you get big corporations with no owner it doesn't really matter to senior management that the thing goes broke as they can just move onto their next $500k job somewhere else.

Compulsory reading.

If the QF32 incident had a different outcome, I imagine it would have been compulsory reading at what would have been Australia's greatest Coronial inquest!

Idiots!

MR WOBBLES, Thank you.

I read the article, first in " Plane Talking" , then saw it again in the December issue of " e-Torque ".

That particular issue of the newsletter seems to be unavailable now, which is why I was wondering if it had been withdrawn from the ALAEA website.


Cheers
James
