I met the MD of CitiExpress yesterday, seems that BAR has been making a loss for some time.
Just because we operate smaller aircraft doesnt mean that we are inferior to the mailine product. Afterall the NCL-BHX service made £2m profit for the company in the past 12 months and that's on a Jetstream! (By the way most of the jetstreams now have EGPWS and are all catII)
