I cannot speak for the present but certainly a few years ago the 737's were shown on BA short haul operations and BA a/c plus crews were sometimes used to meet shortfalls. With regard to the present the A320's could be shown in the BA operation but at present we will not recieve any 321 until Jan 05. Therefore I cannot see what merger of resources unless GB is going to go onto BA AOC, we at BA have had enough problems in the past absorbing units into our AOC.
