Because, despite the legal objections brought by various entities, the courts never made him sell enough to take him out of a majority share status.

It's about the money. Has been in our court systems for the better part of a century.

UHHH VA is referring to VIGIN ATLANTIC... NOT virgin America,....

Well, the article said he had a 51% stake in Virgin Atlantic

It didn't say Virgin America...

I've always heard the VA guys get paid dick to fly widebodies.

Anyone know what they actually make?

Saw 2 guys going to an A340 the other day, and they looked pretty ragged, like sub-regional ragged "I don't make very much so I don't care" even.
