Re IOM: cj241101 You are correct. Weekdays were aimed at biz timings but the weekend flights were fitted around (in so far as I could learn) crew rosters. There was a limited service at the w'ends and it was down to how many sectors they could get one crew to do, just work your way around until time is up! (more or less). If I got the Friday evening out to see mother on Fraggle Rock I paid a lot of money. Then I had to get the Sunday back but that left around midday, so you did not get as much time for your money.
