LGW/& freight flights query

Reading about BA withdrawing/dropping/"suspending" their LGW-NCL flights at the end of March 2007, one of 3 LGW routes that BA are stopping, permanently or otherwise.

I was under the impression that pax numbers on LGW-ABZ were dropping (compared to 2005) or at least static - some flights full, others half full/half empty, depending on how you view it.

I wonder what the future holds for the route with BA, with rumours of them pulling out of LGW in favour of LHR T5.

Or does the oil industry ensure high yield pax wanting to connect on the likes of DFW & IAH.

Also re freight flights, notice BAC Express using a 360 on EMA, rather than Benair, who still do EDI with their 360. Are Benair down to one "Shed" now at ABZ, and will BAC eventually take over the other mail flight also.
