bmi regional operate Lyon from Manchester, perhaps this is what you were thinking?
haha, yeah thats the one! I knew it was a french route beginning with L haha.
Well, who could pick up the routes then?
NQY-Eastern airways with the dash 8 maybe?
TLS/LDE/PRP- flybe on a mix of dash 8 or the new E175?
MPL- Ryanair seem to serve this sirport from the likes of BHX?
BOD- easyjet maybe? If not, then another one for BE.
NOC- Aer Arran will surely jump on this, as its what they do best with GWY/WAT.
