Post BMI-The New Low Cost,No-Frills Airline

An article in todays Sunday Business newspaper, says that BMI will signal plans for a radical restructing aimed at turning it into a low-cost airline.
Ried will tell a conference at the Institute of Economic Affairs that full-service carriers need to slash fares and costs to survive. He will call for working pactices in aviation to be revolutionised.

He points out that main-line industry has outmoded labour practices and low productivity. That applies particularly to pilot hours.

The article does continue. But I`m not sure how to set up a direct link to the article.
