Air Littoral burried in Montpellier

Employees of the french regional airline Air Littoral burried the air line officially this morning in Montpellier.Downed by numerous mafia -style buy- out attempts like the latest from Azzurra Airlines ( bankrupt themselves and represented by a convicted mafia-linked member Mario Palmonella ).
Azzurra never paid a single penny despite multiple announcements advising a settlement of 11 Million Euros as defined by the commercial court.

If Air Lit. are now out of business does this mean they will no longer be taking Ryanair to court over so called subsidies at Charleroi and if so, will MOL have trouble getting his smile through open doors

Air Littoral was never really worried about Ryanair and their least concern was MOL.The employees have trouble understanding what happened to them and a thourough investigation will be asked by them into the passive and uncomprehensive attitude of politicians and the commercial court in Montpellier,for having choosen a mafia-type take-over candidate whose own Airline is basically bancrupt.

I sincerely feel sad for all you employees of air littoral. I hope everything will go the rigth way eventually. However I think you should comply FIRST with your own management who brought the airline to bankruptcy and THEN with courts, "mafia" and the rest of the world.

I concede that Marc Dufour has a very significant reponsibility for the situation FU has been brought to. He initiated the "technical" bancruptcy" that triggered off the mess.But there is a much wider conspiracy related to air-transport in France in general- there are more than 10 airlines that have been brought to stillstand in the last 24 months in France.Anything that -even by far- does challenge Air France will have to go !!!!Mar Dufour will have to justify why he acted the way he did ( his future political career !!! ) - but all the other players in this drama are clearly politically influenced and steered from way above....
