Are you sure that MYL is actually planning a second base at the moment? I seem to recall that Tim Jeans advised recently that the company was to concentrate on building up BHX as business from there was strong. At that time there had been much speculation about where a second hub would be, but the outcome was additional A320's at BHX only. Have you come across information to suggest that MYL is now ready to launch a second hub?

As you know, MYL's parent company has alot on it's plate at the moment. Certain analysts in the City have been quite vocal in suggesting that the group should exit the no-frills market altogether ( I myself offer no opinion on this matter ). The costs associated with launching a second base might not be well received in certain quarters right now, particularly with the current political climate to consider?
