Would be an interesting circular return to history - I flew LGW-ANR with Air Europe Express, morphed into Euroworld then again into CityFlyer Express, franchise to BA then complete assimilation as BACF. We switched to VLM in 93 and BACF/CFE dropped the LGW route not much later due in part to competition from VLM!
