Smile EGNV schedules

GMSTF does occasionally talk some sense!!!

MME did for a couple of years have more UK schedules than Newcastle.Casair ,Genair etc operated quite a network for a short period of time.
However as we discussed many times ,for what ever reason, nothing ever seemed to stick route wise and not for the want of trying,fell by the way side.
I often wondered what would have happened if Gill had set up there instead of Newcastle.

As I see it nothing has changed,NV will always be in the shadow of NT and the future if there is to be one, probably lies in the service industry(FRL Cobhams)scrapping and GA.
The worry will come if FRL or Cobhams loose military contracts through no fault of theirs and a guaranteed 2 million annually goes from inward revenue ?

The aviation industry has changed big time in the last few years and will continue (in my opinion)to contract or remain static especially in the NE of the country,while the London area(and NW) grows.


GMSTF...(hope all well) and stick to the music industry!!!
