fred - if you worked here you'd understand the frustration at having to come in and do your job with your hands tied. SHH board and shareholders need their dividends paying and have lost interest in playing with planes and it's just gone on for too long. Thanks to them for getting us this far but time for all to part ways and move on and revisit the many oportunities that we've missed along the way.

Yeah I know it's remarkable that there are some positive posts on pprune. Rare isn't it?, but Air Southwest is like that - one big happy family that look out for each other. A change is a as good as a rest although maybe not for all unfortunately but we'll cross that bridge.

Several hundred thousand goes to prop up the ever loss making Plymouth Airport. 300k of the loss was down to volcanic ash and refunds. Money we were legally obliged to hand back to passengers and not money we lost due to bad performance, plus we've had to lease in for a length of time covering 'c' checks. The company has been profitable for more years of its life than not.
