Not me. I find it all highly amusing! Used to be me who got things going on Flybe threads. Alas, no more. But I never went as low as jonni and resorted to personal jibes. Far too mature for that kind of rubbish!
RD - keep going. I'm loving this!

What all aircrew at flybe (and on this forum) appear not to grasp is that with the reshuffle of the Board and MW no longer having a place but reporting to an engineer, flightdeck and cabin crew no longer have a voice at the highest level of management.
Now, some may think that is appropriate but I feel it is a sad reflection on an industry that is going fast down a particular road with commercial blinkers on. I know we are a commercial business but one can't run an airline without pilots or cabin crew and it was good to know in flybe that we used to have someone with our background on the Walker Board.

I have to say whispermode, that that is a real issue.
My previous experience in industry (stress/design engineering) demonstrated to me that when the managers were beancounters rather than engineers then getting anything done properly became virtually impossible. Decisions were made on commercial grounds only and not technical grounds (or a mixture of the two). Lets hope that the incumbent decision makers at Flybe don't forget what it's like at the coal face!!
And please girls, stop bickering, it shaves points off your IQ's

RD, Maybe your right or maybe your wrong, the thing is you will never know for sure!!!
One thing is certain and that is Flybe are a lot better off without you.
That's it from me on this subject, goodbye.

OK let's have a vote then... hands up all those who think flybe is better off without me. Just to make it interesting, hands up all those who think flybe is better off without "jonni".
And when you vote, just remember that I used to buy my crew coffee and donuts down-route! Especially when stuck in Bastia for four hours because Calvi was too windy.
Right - get voting!
