He is barely out of nappies.
Quite the reverse - it seems he's a good deal better informed than Derek Coates about the suitability of planes for Alderney.

On current statements about Trislanders being "the OAPs of the skies", ignoring Britten Norman's current renewal of the availability of the marque, and in saying that no there are no suitable replacements, it looks as though Alderney will be as bereft of BI flights as Shoreham. Not good if there's no public service facility available. Looks like economic death to the island.

Am I alone in my hatred of travelling through Gatwick? SOU is a tedious train ride or car journey.

With competent marketing this side of the water, routes, the islands and the airlines could be in a good deal healthier position now. A merger won't bring better competence to the equation.

Best wishes
