Mmmmm

I'm sure I heard something similar at the creation of bacon! Didn't seem to do them much good.

Don't forget guys. Only a year ago, even flybe pilots themselves were worried about the perilous state of the company's finances.

Also this 'project' is, at best, an experiment! An airline based on turbo props, and the Toy Town Jet (TTJ) may work. But Easy, Baby, and Ryan, all think there's a better model!! There's NO guarantees!

It's amazing how predictable this industry is. Not too long ago, it was the bacon pilots crowing about how cheap they were in comparison to the people who's jobs they took. Now it seems even they can be too expensive, because somebody else round the corner can do it cheaper, and it's ALL their fault!

No doubt the Slavs or Eastern can do it even cheaper....

We can probably anticipate the next people to accuse flybe pilots of being too expensive!

We wait with baited breath!

And so pilots are conned into working for less, and less, and.......etc.
