A Case of Corporate Murder
When Freddie Laker launched his Skytrain in 1978, he introduced an era of cheap transatlantic travel to the grateful masses. But he was also effectively declaring war on what was, at the time, one of the most powerful of international cartels, that of the major airlines. Now
Richard Branson , who names Laker as his hero, is fighting a similar battle amid court cases and accusations of "dirty tricks".
But was Laker perhaps brought down by his own ambitions, by expanding too much too soon? " No, no, no," he insists. "I was shafted. 40 Minutes unravels the role of banks, airlines and government officials in the successful attempt to shoot Laker Airways out of the sky.
