3. Application of the model (approx. 450 words). Here, taking each force in turn, describe and analyse Qantas Airlines, using each force. Be purposeful and specific in explaining exactly why you believe each force impacts in the way you do. Integrate relevant academic references, including at least one specific journal article into your analysis as appropriate. This section should be written in the third person.

4. Usefulness and limitations (approx. 150 words). Explain how both, your and the industry analysis in general, can help Qantas Airlines to make decisions about its future strategy.
