Couldn't agree with you more wingo, people can hide behind the fact this is a "rumour" forum, but that is not an excuse for people to say "airlines going belly up" unless you actually have some sort of evidence or rumour to back it up. Otherwise it's ill informed opinion.
As wingo says have some respect for the guys and gals out there right now working the line and in the offices, who Flybe provide a salary to, with Christmas fast approaching and uncertainty hopefully about to be eased, people saying they're going busy is daft.
What seems to be a good management team being put in place, and people looking forward to the future, wait for the 11th and then pass comment.
