GROUNDHOG
Great to have the benefit of your long experience in this field back on PPRuNe, even if it is only an occasional visit.
When GROUNDHOG speaks on this subject we should all listen and take note.
Many of us theorise, even fantasise, on setting up and running an airline from our local airport and the routes we would fly.
Well, GROUNDHOG has done it, more than once, and in the southwest corner of Britain, so his views are based on the real thing, not just theories.
