Might be an "airline too far" for the bearded wonder.

And pigs will fly and the publicity-hungry Branson picks up some more press space. The Indians have strict rules for even Non Resident Indians investing in airlines. Branson knows there isn't a rats ass chance of having to put his money where his mouth is, and would want his head examined even if he could, so when a journalist in India is talking to Branson and thinks "Virgin - airlines - India" and asks the obvious dumb question, guess what he gets? I await the bowling alley and Starbucks on the A380.
