Get real......FAS good as they are would not survive without the airline as our remit is to narrow , We can’t maintain anything like the range of aircraft MAEL can , We are limited to puddle jumpers i’m afraid .
Best bet cut our costs and farm everything out to MAEL , Then just keep the third party work in Exeter
All academic now anyway as COW has opened the seacocks good style and it’s just a matter of time sadly....Be nice to see FAS surviving but just cannot see it i’m afraid
