    AUGUST 20, 2007
    The future of Fernando Alonso

    A French newspaper has scooped the F1 world by revealing Fernando Alonso's future eomployer. The economic supplement to Le Figaro of August 17 reported changes at the top of the flight test team at Airbus, which is currently launching its new double-decker A380.

    "Having reached the mandatory retirement age, (Claude Lelaie, director flight testing for Airbus) will shortly be replaced by the Spaniard, Fernando Alonso," the newspaper reported.

    Has anyone told Ron?

    Unfairnando in the airline industry?

    That explains why I always have to wait for take-off because the plane in front takes forever to taxi.

    he might start whining if the passengers are late, or his take off has been delayed. worst case scenario, he'll hold up another jet behind him to protest...
