It might make sense to help defer APD, and assist Flybe.
Still a risk of a further double whammy down the line, however. Whilst the winter months are quieter, I didn’t think Flybe would be affected as much as most.

The management are playing games IMO. There is still going to be an airline at the end of it and this is going to be similar to the Loganair/BMI situation.
