Another rather simplistic view is that last week Management were the best thing since sliced bread and $3+ was just around the corner.
Now they suck and AIR is doomed?
That is what I have just gleaned in the last day reading this.

lol I kind of got that too. Its a pity they didn't have that epiphany when the price was well north of $3.

Good week for uncertainty around AIR.
Dobby41 re your last post - Six months ago i posted that
The Halo Effect by Philip Rozenzweig is a fascinating book
This seems to be the sharetrader view (sort of)- The book considers a succession of cases where companies were described as well-led, customer focused and innovative when their share price increased, but as soon as their fortunes changed suddenly “became” complacent, reckless or outdated in the eyes of commentators, or vice versa.
Sold my holdings at $2.88. I like the AIR management and think the company is doing well overall with the operating stats but this and the electric car thing is not giving me confidence in the short term. Might come back in if the SP drops again but I can see it coming under some selling pressure in the short term.
Slipped out myself today @ 2.88, been looking @ SCL but they might be getting a bit heady just now I reckon
I see VAH as a hugely important beachhead to Australia for AIR.
AIR's security of NZ routes, feeders to and from Australia, and growing alliances hinge on VAH.
AIR, and the other major shareholders have the opportunity to put VAH on a sound footing.
Forgoing a "special" one off dividend for a better VAH, is a small price to pay for the very real benefits a strong VAH will provide all AIR shareholders for years to come.
I have not thought of selling my shares.
medium to long term it could prove a good move but how much more will they throw at it? For me, AIR has never been a buy and hold, plenty of opportunity with the 30c SP swings it has and not hard to get a quick 5-10% profit each time it happens. I had anticipated holding for longer than I had this time around but just wonder if sentiment is for the negative at the moment. ASB securities has 73,000 buyers and 450,000 sellers which is a limited gauge I know but an indication of some sort
I often buy with the view of never selling.
With very experienced shareholders backing VAH their future will be excellent.
A strong VAH will benefit all VAH shareholders,AIR most probably the most.
I do not see AIR contributing funding to VAH as a negative.
Therefore I have no reason to sell.
