jaiyen Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 So he has 3 jobs to do ? Never going to work, as usual. No experience in the aviation industry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydebolle Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Smart move, if it goes down the toilet (and it most likely will) he has a double safety net. His predecessor's rule is one, the China virus the second one. If they decide to privatize TG he might be the man to do the transition and if not, he can stay as long as he wants without a bottom line to meet.
