Hows about ZB take over, common fleets with BMI mainline. Opens up numerous possibilities for WW taking over longer routes ex bhx and man.
ZB reportedly struggling for cash and a take over by BMI, well maybe. Just another name to throw in the pot......

If you research the ownership of ZB then you'll see that in these troubled times it is they who will be on the look out for opportunities.
We're entering a period of "cash is king"
The question is do they want to remain as an airline supporting the Cosmos operation.

Junglie, likewise ! 
Some things do get lost in translation though.
When I was very new to the language, I was introduced to Mrs Stoney's Italian family, one of which was her cousin with a new born.
Now, anyone knows baby is 'bambino' in italian, but in my rich Manchester accent, trying to talk to a Neapolitan family, instead of asking the mother if I could have the baby, I asked whether she would give me 'un pompino.'
Five years later, I may have been forgiven, but it will never be forgotten

BMI Take Over of Monarch ?????
I for one hope that Monarch can & will continue well into the future, as a complete separate Airline in it's own right. However we all know that in this industry, different carriers are getting together, take overs, amalgamations etc happen almost every day & so often the Staff are the last to know.
As far as rumours are concerned, many moons ago I was in the crew room & someone announced a rumour, that Monarch were looking at the possible operation of a DC10.
The majority view of this at the time, was a resounding, Rubbish, No way, Totally out of the question etc etc. Just look what happened shortly after & what a super decision by the company too!
