The Loco showdown??

Recent press speculation suggest a LOCO showdown this summer with perhaps only THREE locos serviving. What are the opinions of US PPruNers on this subject??

I suspect that it will be the likes of BA, BMI and other FULL COST opertators that will suffer rather than any of the LOCOs. Will airports such as NEMA suffer with over capasity in the LOCO market?

Recent moves by THOMSONS to cancel certain flights from Humberside and mover them to ROBIN HOOD is certain to dilute the market further. Will the bubble burst at Manchester and new International flights operate from ROBIN HOOD?

from YORKSHRE the place to be is the city of Leeds.
