A statue of Eduardo Dato, founder of Spain's labour ministry, sports apparel placed on it by Spanair workers during a protest in front of the labour ministry in Madrid, February 6, 2012. Loss-making Spanish airline Spanair ceased operations January 27, grounding all its airplanes after its owner, citing the country's economic crisis, said it would not sink any more money into the company. A spokesperson for the aircrews told Reuters that they were indignant that the company had alleged security reasons for not giving forewarning of the closure.
