Whilst it's true that Air UK helped build Stansted, it's largely RYR that have made it the success it is today, together with easyJet, Air Berlin and a couple of others.
Unlike the MOL bashers who never seem to stop whingeing, personally I hope that BAA gets a thrashing. It is a monopolistic throwback to the seventies. I wish RYR all the best in their fight with this dinosaur - also easyJet with their own action at Gatwick. There's lots pf competition in the air, but damn all on the ground.
