That's an interesting development and the £10 million will come in handy. Mind you, the RNS statement says that some divisions may continue to use the Stobart name for up to 36 months through a licencing arrangement with Eddie Stobart Limited. Maybe they won't revert to Aer Arann as it's so easy to spell it incorrectly as you quite understandably demonstrated.
