Any truth in the rumour that Cityjet is in trouble as the Avros are at risk getting banned in 2017 from LCY because of more stringent noise restrictions? I understand that there have been...

Why are you guys so focused on CRJ900@LCY?

The PR is crystal clear:

With the VLM arm sold, Cityjet no longer has the Fokker 50 in its fleet. So it is either leasing in a VLM Fokker 50 or a Stobart Air ATR42 (or any other 50 seater prop), whoever makes the better...
