Turnaround: Introduction Transcript, with a description of what is shown on screen. Video: video/Turnaround-Intro.mp4, 1 minute 27 seconds. Speakers: One speaker, the presenter: a woman in a black jacket and white shirt, in an office with large windows onto an airport apron. She narrates the opening stock footage before she appears. Sound: Speech only. There is no music. The video also shows its own captions at the bottom of the frame. [0:00] On screen: Stock footage: an airport apron at sunrise. Presenter: Five forty in the morning. A young airline's first flight is boarding on time, as it does every day. That is how a cheap airline stays cheap. [0:08] On screen: Stock footage: bags loaded by a belt loader beside an aircraft engine at the gate, then the apron at sunrise. Presenter: Its aircraft fly more hours than anyone's. Twenty minutes on the ground, then back in the air. [0:14] On screen: Stock footage: the tail of an aircraft against a sunrise sky, then an aircraft at the gate with ground crew and service vehicles around it. Presenter: But the customers who would pay more want things that slow those aircraft down. A main airport. A lounge. A seat that waits for them. And a slow aircraft makes a cheap airline expensive. [0:27] On screen: The presenter, standing in an airline office with parked aircraft outside the windows. A red banner reads: Turnaround: the low-cost airline game. Presenter: This is Turnaround, the low-cost airline game. You run Meridian Air, a young airline with twenty aircraft, one base and launch debt. [0:35] On screen: Stock footage: an airline operations room, crew walking through a terminal, and an aircraft in a hangar. Presenter: Every half year for five years, you choose cities and airports, set fares against the incumbent, order aircraft that may arrive late, hire pilots, and decide how far to move upmarket. [0:47] On screen: Stock footage: an executive at an office window over a city at dusk, then aircraft parked at night under floodlights, seen from above. Presenter: You learn that a cost advantage belongs to the whole system, that the airport decides which customers you can win, and that a growing airline can be closer to failure than its accounts suggest. [1:00] On screen: The presenter again. A red banner reads: Business courses, executive programs, company training. Presenter: Turnaround is written for business courses, executive programs and company training in competitive strategy. You play alone, for about forty minutes, then join the debrief. The board grades your airline from A to F. [1:14] On screen: The presenter, for the closing lines. Presenter: Every profitable customer wants something that slows you down.
