The right stuff

Some of you guys seem well informed and much of what you say makes sound logic. Not that BA has ever shown much of that, they can usuaully take a profitable outfit and reverse its fortunes As one of you said there is a lot of creative accounting. BHX BA staff do nearly all the GA functions and no doubt are expensive when compared to the dedicated GA's i.e. Globeground, Aviance; In an effort to preserve a presence at LGW I am sure that BA will ditch as many of the regional bases as they can. It is bad news for the staff but in meeting them over the years they are as militant as LHR/LGW people which cannot ensure long careers in BA when your tenure is fragile. It therefore follows that Scottish airports BA staff should watch the BHX experience very carefully. I apologise for the gloom.
