Whilst Baby is far from being out of the woods it certainly isn't as gloomy as some would have you believe.
Baby is on target to make a small operating profit this year - which is a much better turn around from loss making than Mainline.
Yes the B737 Classics are old, but the interiors are clean and functional and lease costs are much lower than a NG. Sure there are issues with continuing with the Classic - the Engineering dept is aware, management is aware but as the airframes are leased its not going to be Baby's problem when they are returned at the end of the lease. What huge investment is required from DLH to replace one leased aircraft with another?
Beats me why DLH would be considering closing down a part of the bmi group that's returning to profitability, that produces a significant revenue stream and is showing more potential for growth/profitability than some other group elements.
Or perhaps DLH aren't considering closing Baby as some would have you believe.
Me thinks a change of tippet and a new fly is required
