Cardiff to Heathrow - helicopter service

[GROUNDHOG]

I know it has been muted before but it seems that the Cardiff City Council have paid to have a study done re operating this service with a 'thirty seat' helicopter (whatever that is) using the new Cardiff City Heliport (whatever that is?)

I can see the logic in running from West Wales to London and even more logic to Gatwick ( because of the M25) but I can drive Cardiff to Heathrow in a couple of hours so the time/cost ratio is not that good - especially with the DOC's of a helicopter.

Withybush via Cardiff or Swansea to Gatwick, yes that is logical or even Central London with a helicopter but I would question Heathrow?

Anyone know any more about this master plan?

There is a big piece on it in 'European Business News' I am trying to follow it up with the councillor involved, will let you know.

A flying pie .... now thats a good idea
