I already did Dunlops. In fact I asked several of them. If you think the CRJ is bad then ask anyone at BHX what they think of the Embraer 145 or the RJ100. Only one aircraft grounded would be a dream come true for the BAR ops guys. As for the long haul vs europe stuff, well there you really need to read between the lines of the accounts, specifically the way revenue is split between short and long haul based on mileage rather than seat price, resulting in an unjustifiably large sum being credited to long haul. Rod Eddington personally stated that the cost of pulling out of short haul would be the loss of 40% of long haul revenue. I know that because I was there when he said it. If all the money was in long haul then BA would have no short haul now. Short haul still exists, ergo the accounts don't show the full picture.
