devonish & JobsaGoodun,
Taking in to consideration the operators of the NQY/LON/NQY route over the past 30+ years it can be difficult to talk about the NQY route without talking about it's partner PLH route and the said operators of such routes, namely Brymon & ASW both of which were PLH based operators.
I get devonish's point, that "we're" getting fed up hearing about if/when/maybe/not PLH might or might not re-open, after all this forum is for airlines, airports and routes and Plymouth doesn't have any of those.
But, aside from the PLH flag wavers, please try to bear with some of us because, as I say, it can be difficult to talk about one without talking about the other.
