Thanks for the compliment, I thought yesterday That i would get a lot of responses saying it was negative and no substance!! He he .

So much interesting info coming back. What do you all say to the following statements?

1. Flybe-if they have IPO will MOL buy stock? to make life hard?
2. Aer Arann- Will Flybe take over, 195s not a good idea-Padraid stick to Props and niche market stay out of Ryanairs way?
3. BMI Baby-too much competition, no fleet strategy. Bmibaby and Jet 2 will be snapped up by EZY/FR.
4.FLyglobespan- they will fold, did anyone see the bit on WHistleblowers on TV tonight?
5.Euromanx -Will disappear.
6.Aer Lingus will continue in existing ownership, will struggle to show good reasonable profits. will launch extra new base next year in BHX?

One common theme seems to be Flybe will BA back BE to buy up all the regional airlines around the place? Bmi Regional, Eastern, Aer Arann.

ALot of people would suggest that BE is the obviuos buyer for Aer Arann. What do you all think?
