''Shelley has established Tiger Airways Australia as a major national airline, and led it from infancy to profitability,'' Tiger Airways Holdings Group chief executive Tony Davis has announced.
''She intends to take a well deserved break. We would like to thank her and wish her continued success in her future endeavours,'' he said.


This above bit looks like speak for she was pushed.

Still a bit odd though. Getting them into profitability is something, and they haven't had any bad incidents. Unless it's the approach with "Airways?"
