it is true!!!

Many sources have informed me that he has been fired - he's probably clearing out his desk!!!!!!

Everyone knows what he's been up to and it's pay back time!!!!!!!!!!!1

AAB

I am informed that he is still in office right now but will not be there at the end of the year. We hear of a replacement..............

Also, nice to see that Qatar is getting a new A330-300 next week.

Also, I know that this is off thread, but now that Gulf Air has decided to start to fly to Birmingham in the UK using 767's, does that mean that QR will also start? Because, now EK and GF both do it. Surely that means that Qatar will also start to do it.

Aviaco

If what you say is correct do you know by whom he will be replaced?

Be nice to see a straight managerial swap with the Australian who manages the thousands of delayed passengers at BA.

Strength,

How are you?

This issue has been exhausted already with the rumours of the CEO leaving QR.

When and IF you see it then beleive it, otherwise for now it is just a rumour about the money, leaving, replacement, end of the year. etc etc etc.

One thing is for sure in Aviation and that is " Nothing is for sure."

Re Aviaco's point

As QR have quickly followed in the footsteps of Etihad to LGW then I would not be surprised to hear BHX next...QR being the great market FOLLOWERS they are...

I don't think the visionary (*cough cough!) has been fired. All seems too good to be true.
