flights on the 767 to SFB from GLA or BFS have been direct with no tech or fuel stops on route.

the BMI possible takeover of GSM. which way do you see it ?

Would only give BMI more aircraft and crews which are generally Scotland based, as BMI are not to big in Scotland I wouldn't think they would be too interested in the routes up here and would probably ditch them in favour of moving the 737 fleet down south.
I take it that the GSM 737 with the winglets have far superior range than the current BMI or WW fleet allowing them to be used on eastern Med routes no need for 757 then.

The 767 would be welcome addition to BMI as the have been struggling over the past few years leasing long haul aircraft but would definetly move them out of Scotland ooops they are mostly not in Scotland anyway would it make much difference.

or

Maybe BMI are expanding the Baby brand and are looking for a bit of the EZY & RYR Scottish expansion over the past couple of years and dont want to be left too far behind in the UK sector.
