And by the looks of it, that isn't going to change.

Sample return for the dates in November, Flybe is fractionally more expensive - even before you add £18 each way for a bag - than Loganair. easyJet LGW is much cheaper but their bag charges look to have shot up in recent times - £54.98 return for their bundle, which is almost as much as the base fare on many flights.

If you want a cheap fare, it's Gatwick (as long as you don't take a bag). If you want the lowest fare to Heathrow, it's Loganair with or without a bag. I can't see any USP or anything different Flybe are bringing to the party, unless I'm missing something?
