Mr Benn, you said:
<The facts as they stand right now.
BA need to modify one more Conc before they can start running a regular passenger service once again.>
Not really. We have three aircraft ready to go, which is what it needed for one service a day.
<This costs X million pounds.>
Already budgeted for.
<BA are in dire straits as far as cash flow is concerned.>
Again, not really. BA announced that they have £1 billion in cash reserves, plus £3 billion in disposable assets (building etc.)
<Not all the crews have been trained back on the aircraft yet.>
True. But they have fully trained all the crews they need for a daily JFK service. And the rest of them (they are needed for twice a day to JFK) are waiting for their courses, later this year.
<Those who have have been told they are likely to be going back to another fleet once again.>
Not true.
<I would LOVE to see the Concs back in the air again, but I am not holding my breath>
Oh go on, please?
<Maybe once BA gets a bit stronger again? >
Nope. November 7th.
