no doubt they have got the financial side nicely sewn up

I am sure they have; what they don't seem to have sewn up quite so well is:

  • The syllabi
  • Experienced flight commanders and supervisors
  • Licenced engineers (willing to top up with their pension, in a market they don't need to)
  • An airframe that is fit for purpose in regard to rearcrew training (50% of the throughput).
But ,yes, no doubt they have the financial side nicely sewn up.


Pedant note: Soteria wasn't a bidder on MFTS so I am not sure why you are using a slightly irrelevant comparison?
