With the completion of a succesful capital-raising program, Virgin now has enough money to proceed with the formation of Virgin Aerospace ; a developer of civilian transport aircraft to compete head-on with Boeing and Airbus.

Virgin Aerospace has purchased 50 acres of land near Tainan, R.O.T which will be developed into an aircraft plant.

Irony? How is it ironic?

Well, it was a reasonably short post, so the tl,dr was my feigning of ignorance. Normally I read the post but put "tl,dr" to annoy the poster, but this time I actually posted without reading it. Instead of being sarcastic, it's embarassing in an ironic way.
