Assuming this is a fair summary, it moves the question of support for Loganair onto the same footing as that for easyJet, Wizz or a chain of pubs or retail outlets - through an approved Government scheme open to any eligible company in any sector of the economy.
Going by their books - however accurate, this is what PwC will be doing - they won’t be able to service any substantial level of debt.

In two minds - if they do, I hope they do it sensibly to ensure their long term survival. But if they get greedy, they’ll only find themselves in a more difficult situation down the line. I’m not convinced any level of debt they could access - with minimal assets on the books - will be enough.
