In this latest deal Peel are now questioning where the money is coming from, for example if there's any Russian money involved. Whether they're using this as a convenient excuse to eventually reject...

CargoOne - TUI in the UK has a bond which is repaid via a salary reduction, even for type-rated pilots! Hence I didn't apply.
