Oh dear, here we go again. This is what I said last month:

'Again, you misunderstand me. I completely agree that this is a time for wannabees to be extremely cautious, particularly with borrowed money. I am merely observing that the data from the Low Costs, from as recently as October, flies in the face of your arguements and predictions.'

Please delete 'October' and insert 'November'. Ranting doesn't help your case.

Tell you what, though. I will take WWW's carefully defined bet of a month ago. He said:

'I promise Wannabes on pain of eating my Kangaroo skin hat with salt and pepper that in 2009 several significant EU airlines will go bust. By several I mean >10 and by significant I mean having more than >30 jets.'

I'll put £100 in the PPRuNe fund if he is right but, if he is wrong, I do want to see that hat eaten.

Do you detect a trend? A prize for the man! He's figured out the Low Costs are busier in the summer.
