Beetling off to Vancouver in September won't do much good.
The slots jamboree is 9th-12th November.

"A spokesman for Britain's low-cost mecca, Stansted Airport, is not encouraging, advising that available slots are largely in the quiet middle of the day - useless for that businessman with a 9am meeting in Frankfurt."
Rubbish! Check out http://www.acl-uk.org/services/slotavail.asp and look at total slot availability for any time of day.

Mmmmm, and I think that the CAA are now looking a little dimly on paper airlines as suggested here. Wet leasing the whole operation was a clever way for Stelios to start, but you may need to get your own AOC now (how did the Grauniad manage to get the simple term "Air Operator's Certificate" wrong?). I think they want a consistent chain of responsibility.
