New York -No Chance
Sadly the markrting team at Leeds are in pipe dream land and are try to blow smoke up your a**e. They hanker back after the days of Wardair & the sight of a 747 over the Leeds skyline (impresive though it t'was) either way you'll not get a useful payload out of Leeds west bound on anything that Continental have in their current fleet. If it means going via say LPL i'd rather go to Manchester or LHR than pratt about, the days of take off -land-take off-land are over, well at least for me.
Cheers
