General Comments

Barbara Cassani, Go: An Airline Adventure - Not even slightly impressed. Cassani gets a £25m gift to get started and all she could do was lose a fortune! In the REAL WORLD people have to raise their own cash and are dead commercially long before this - she harps on endlessly about how they were NOT supported by BA but misses the central truth, that without them they would never have started. I am sure that being there on the team was great fun, but I resent being told how tough it all was when most people never even get a sniff of a chance because they never had a deal with Bob.

Easy read 8/10 - real world experience 1/10 - sorry Barbs. Do better next time - in fact come and work for me and then write a book after the project alone has to open doors rather than your big name mates!
