"Unless your definition of manageable is base closure, involuntary postings, demotions and general chaos. I'd say the shorthaul operation at LHR and LGW is very slickly managed in comparison."

Unbelievable. It should be pointed out that the base closures, involuntary postings, demotions and general (total??) chaos only started to occur when BA took us over, and has continued apace ever since.
As for Ken Foggo - flippin' well right mate, those were the best of times - now we have the worst of times! Anyone want to look at Flybe and see how proper Regional Airline management can turn a dime or two.

Carnage - as you know all too well being mainline, the BA system of revenue allocation per ticket makes it impossible for nearly all shorthaul routes to show a profit. Twas ever thus, BOAC rules, OK!
