RAL must be very disappointed that nothing positive has yet emerged from their efforts to establish meaningful scheduled services at SEN. In 2007 much will depend upon Flybe's decision as to whether or not to establish a hub at SEN, as there seem to be precious few other candidates in the frame.
It will be interesting to see whether RAL's discussions with the CAA concerning possible changes to the runway configuration have a positive outcome. Without any doubt the changes that are under consideration would greatly enhance SEN's potential for scheduled and charter pax services - particularly to southern European holiday destinations.
If the rumour concerning "a major fractional operator" proves true, the establishment of an execjet FBO at SEN would be another important step forward.
