Sick, yes, Enhanced GPWS is now on about half the J41 fleet and will be fitted to all by over the coming months. Nice kit.

I find the £2,000,000 profit on the NCL-BHX route a bit suspect though. Seems strange that one 29 seat aircraft can make 20% of the total profit of an airline that has nearly fifty aircraft. This years summer timetable showed 16 round trips per week, over a year this gives 48,256 seats available per year - divide this by the profit quoted and that gives £82 profit margin per passenger on a round trip, this of course assuming 100% capacity. On the back of the fare of £196 return I think you will agree it is at best wishful thinking !!.
