I-J. Pretty ill-informed and unhelpful comment, I'm afraid. I've flown the BE 271 twenty-five plus times this year and have not been late into LGW once. That rotation to LGW is very dependable, and even when they have got a crewing or aircraft issue in IOM, the LGW departure seems to get priority over LPL and MAN. Just because it's a few minutes late departing today when we seem to have significant disruption in the London area........
Edited to add - BE271 actually arrived at LGW 4 minutes behind schedule, so not actually late at all by the accepted definition.
