"The UK's biggest regional airline, Flybe, is in talks about acquiring bmibaby and bmi regional, both part of British Midland, where Germany's Lufthansa is taking majority control.
Flybe, part of private group Walker Aviation, is carrying out due diligence on the two businesses that account for about 40 per cent of British Midland's turnover and could be worth up to £150 million."
