How can they sell planes on expensive leases that they don't own? Granted Ryanair did own some of the older airframes, I doubt if easyJet currently own any?
No doubt the leasing firms who have purchased the airframes have in place stringent 'exit' clauses?
As for the new Luton MD. Went from bossing Hurn, to shifting pallets! Says a lot about the intentions of Abertis.....he must be inexpensive to employ? Low cost airport with low cost intentions? So I wonder what the ex Manchester Airports Group link is?
