davidjohnson6 - FMO has had a constant route to London for many, many years, and there is a strong UK connection from the army days. It has mostly been operated by props, with the exception of an AB 737 for a while. There certainly is demand - LCY was the wrong fit though and Cityjet aren't cheap. So while FMO-LON is viable, the question to be answered is whether SEN appropriately addresses the accessibility issue for the UK-originating market that was lacking with LCY. Having said that, SEN is probably the only realistic option left as there is no one with the right equipment at LTN/STN. FR fly to FMO but my opinion would be the 738 is too big from LON
