"I see you side stepped the issue of pilots running off of runways by the way."
A very recent event,and not one that would,on its own have caused the CAA to have pulled an AOC.
"all bailed out of the 3-6t market ages ago. If it was that easy to do, then surely a UK company would come and fill the gap that is left. "
Well yes,but all the time Emerald was going, and not following the rules that everybody else had to to keep their AOC's then it's very easy to have a monopoly innit?
Whether i'm wearing rose tinted specs and looking through the bottom of a pint glass or not doesn't alter the fact that a good, money making company has been reduced to nothing due to an egomaniac control freak with no regard for other people.
Kind regards
