Out of all the posts here over the past few days that is the indisputable fact that emerges from all the claims and counter-claims of various posters, myself included.

I'm sure Stobarts must be delighted, and perhaps a little surprised, that in temperatures up to 35 degrees the operation of the fleets of B738 and A320 aircraft remained virtually unaffected to destinations far more distant than anyone would have envisaged even being served 5 years ago. Even the EZY A319s, with their de-rated spec engines, seem to have exceeded expectations. I hope that even the sternest of critics of SEN will accept this as being true and that it puts another 'tick' in SEN's box.
