Madam, - Two months ago, a friend with more than a passing knowledge of airlines opined that he would be amazed if Michael O'Leary didn't attempt a takeover of Aer Lingus.
"Why would he even dream of such a thing?", he was asked. "Because it's there and O'Leary is O'Leary!" was his reply.
The Government's advisers may have read too many financial and legal tomes and not enough books on psychology. - Yours, etc,
JAMES McGOWAN, Crawford Avenue, Glasnevin, Dublin 9.
