New Startup

The title of the thread is slightly misleading as what I'm about to describe is merely an idea, although we have every intention to turn said idea into an actual airline.

Myself & a few others, using Boeing's airline startup service, are to develop a full business plan for a new airline to be based at Durham Tees Valley Airport & thereafter begin a campaign to get it noticed & hope it may get picked up by someone with the financial means to get it off the ground (excuse the pun).

At the moment we're in the process of listing all possible destinations & aircraft types & we'll build the business plan around that. Ideally, we wish to serve an even mix of business & leisure routes.

We're well aware of the difficulties ahead & I know a lot of the replies to this thread will be of a critical nature - we'll do our best to defend ourselves. It will be interesting to see how far the whole thing gets, there's no hiding the fact it's an extremely long shot!!
