VC10 Quotes

“Transient political appointees perhaps being the most lethal and potentially toxic risk of all to any business, especially a nationalised airline – or Britain’s railways. In matters of transport and defence, the arrival of a clueless new minister of such a department of responsibility can cause great concerns and harms to airlines, air forces, or to armies and navies. Experts in their respective fields make much better appointees.”
