Abstract: Despite the privileges of the international institutional environment and those based on the convention between O.A. and the Greek State, the account registered financial results of Olympic Airways (O.A.) since its nationalisation in 1975 up to 1990, reached an cumulative deficit of more than 160 billion GRD, (800 million US$). Does, however, these economic results reflect the real financial position of the Greek National carrier? How can these deficits be explained comparatively with the impressive development of Olympic according to indexes such as 'number of jet airplanes used', 'number of passengers carried', 'annual flight hours', 'annual kilometers flown' 'productivity of labour', 'flight safety' e.t.c. This book gives objective answers based on certain facts to the following questions: Which was the experience from Onasis management of Olympic? Why Olympic was nationalised by a conservative government? What was the experience from the state (conservatives and socialists) management of the Greek National Carrier? This book is based on the research of the Thesis of the author.
