I have a strong suspicion FR may actually purchase W6. A few things within the company showing signs to take a second arcraft type a reality....the business model of W6 is an exact copy of FR.

With Spanair and Malev going there's suddenly more market to be grabbed, and who knows who is next. FR do not have the ability to expand beyond 2012/13 as no A/C will be entering the fleet....a quick purchase of W6 gives an entire market, supply of new aircraft and orders from Airbus. Heavy expansion into Central/Eastern markets aswell as continued expansion in Spain and into the Baltic states...

Just my 2 cents, but think its time to spend some of that stored up cash on turning around W6 and pushing the PAX figures past the 100million mark.
