My thoughts are with everyone down in Plymouth and Newquay.

A great bunch of people to work with, and I wish them all the best. As with most of the closure's that have affected Plymouth over the last few years, again we see the staff finding this information via the local/national media, or as with one department, an internal leak!

It's been an absolute disgrace from day one of the involvement with BRAL/Manx, and ultimately BA's poor management, that have allowed this to happen.

Whilst we are all aware of the difficulties being experienced by airlines, all around the world, news of this degree should always be passed to the staff concerned first. Local news transmissions are totally unacceptable.

So, BACX management, Do you feel this is acceptable again? I really hope that someday this happens to you.

Whilst the Sutton Harbour Holdings deal has seemingly fallen through, I can only hope, that now there is a definate timetable for BA's withdrawal, SHH can arrange something to rescue these flights, and the jobs of my old colleagues.

Again, goodluck to all staff involved with this closure.
