Flybe

the above can all run their aircraft on the sniff of a tanker drivers glove and Flybe are 15% owned by BA so they ain't going anywhere.

bmibaby are owned by bmi who are part owned by luffty & SAS and short of just shutting up shop and walking away i don't see anything happening to baby anytime soon.

Jet2 publish their 2007 accounts in a couple of days so that will put to rest either the "there about to go under mongers" or the "Jet2 are making buckets loads of money cos they own the kit crew?"

At least with Jet2 you get a detailed breakdown of what they are doing because they are a PLC and are using shareholder funds (other people money if you like) where as with bmi its Sir Michael's cash in the main to do with as he see fit.

Let see what this week brings, hopefully this time next year all the player will still be in play and more importantly for most still employing lots of crews!! lol
