G65, remember one thing, time will come for the consortium.
ON the Asset snatch, not T/O, you have your position, and every person company in the con airways collective leaves a trail, they just don't understand the methods some of us work with
Southend pasengers etc, make no difference in my portfolio, as its so diverse the UK holdings dont make up 7% of it.
on your biomass, nice to hear some are trying, when they get close to statkraft, then they will have made progress.
Good luck with portfolio and I m sure your BP will be okay in the comng months lol
G65.
As stated, I have no interest in Southend airport, passenger numbers etc, if people want to use it, then its freedom of choice. The Same applys to Luton, Stansted.
On Con Airways, just sit back and watch, and all will come out with US authorities who are able to deal with parts.
The odd thing is Flybe name still being used, must be a black knight using it, as if people saw it was Con Airways and the job losses, cancelled flights they would react more.
Next Branson /Brady will rebrand it with a new logos, not the sexist logo he as used for the past 30 years and dolly birds.
With regards to JET2, the business model is proven and works, and as for Norwegian, I just made the comments they are throwing down challenges on Long Haul to others including Virgin.
Norwegian will have problems like all airlines, but at least they did not asset snatch a brand and pretend to invest in it.
No we wont agree on Flybe G65, business ethics and and Brady dont mix. That does not take away from how COW and Laffin boy behaved, but to tango with crooks you need to be one and todate the Conn Air group are Con Air, they hope by branding it Vigin the issues will go away
You seem incapable of accepting that I am not interested in some backwater regional airport in Southend, what ever its passenger numbers.
Norwich serves a pupose and its not all about London people, and Stansted serves those in that part of the coiuntry very well .
G65, why dont you ask UK MP C Grayling to join your white knight rescue, he will fit 100% perfectly into it.
Now as for spitting bile, I dont answer to you or your FCA.
London as LHR 5 terminals, GTW , Stanstead, Luton, London City, so anyone makingt a trip by rail or car to Southend does so at there own risk. Norwich never claimed to be a London Airport, and Norwich is a city in its own right with a University.
35 Flight cancelled by VIRGIN STOBART CON AIR , under the guise of Flybe, Chris Grayling fiasco and jobs
London best airport does not interest me in the slightest, who ever it turns out to be, and which or what makes no differnce , 50 minutes from London of 3 hours from London.
No offfense, but you seem to have developed a phobia about about London and Southend, Stobart, and still cant see the real issues coming Stobarts way.
Good luck with Stobart and Go Ahead group.
PS Norwegian giving Virgin a spanking and Jet2 as well doing the same
G65
Personally and professionally, I do not consider flybe sell out and trading inside information which Brady broke the law on a white rescue.
Suggest a review of regulations by UK regulators who can not regulate anything. That comment is based on 15 years experience in the US and 16 years in the UK.
As to my view pre FLYBE CON AIRWAYS , Stobart is one of those companys I would never have invested in due to its buisness model and vested interests on one Warwick Brady.
I am not comparing London Travelers to Southend and Norwich, as Norwich is a regional airport for the counties of Suffolk , Norfolk and the University City of norwich is so advanced to Southend, you can not compare the two.
The Logig of Fybe Con Iar is flawed on many levels and the failure of Branson in the UK market internally as been proven many times over, Branson is a failure and History of UK regional buisness model fails and as failed.
My losses on Flybe are minimal, and insignificant, what I do object to is warwick brady taking confidential information and sharing it with Crook of Cyrus and Branscam, with Evercore playing a major role.
In the USA Evercore would never have been allowed to be advisors to FLYBE, due to conflict of interest an dbeing retained and paid by Virgin. The problem will continue in the UK with poor regulation until the FCA and City Minister face upto the fact that they rund a casino, where Dog Ravcing and Bingo is better regulated tan the City of London.
I think you make the mistake of thinking everyone wants to travel through London, when its not the case..
Over capacity in the UK market is a real issue, and its where RYA, EZJ, can not be challened by Con Air.
FLYBE employees in the South West lose out and thankfully RYA are increasing flights and passenger numbers .
White Knights rescue is a simple asset snatch and attempt to squeeze other airports , and to put it in a nice way, Norwich or Southend, is a no contest, as time will show.

PS, Norwegian Airlines non stop routes to South America maybe a eye opener , along with Seattle, Miami, etc

This compared with 82% in the same month last year and up one percentage point over February.
A total of 2,390 flights were delayed – or 4% of the total – due to air traffic control staff shortages in March, according to latest statistics.
Passenger experience scores showed that 88% of more than 100,000 respondents rated their flight ‘excellent/very good /good’, with high ratings for crew friendliness (92%), on board service (90%), boarding (83%) and range of food and drink (82%).

Ryanair extends two new Exeter routes into winter
Ryanair has started flying from Exeter with three new summer routes.
New routes to Malaga and Malta will continue into the winter, running twice weekly from October.
Naples will be served by the no-frills carrier for the summer only.
The arrival of the airline will bring an extra 85,000 passengers to the Devon airport in the first year, Ryanair estimated.
Exeter airport managing director Matt Roach said:“This is the first time we have welcomed Ryanair to Exeter and we’re thrilled to offer customers even more choice from their local airport to these popular sunshine destinations.
“We’re gearing up for a busy 2019 with over 40 routes across the UK and Europe, and we continue to invest in the airport’s facilities to meet growing demand.”
A Ryanair spokeswoman added: “We’re delighted to officially launch our first ever Exeter flights, at our 21st UK airport, with the start of our twice weekly service to Malta, one of three new Exeter summer 2019 routes in addition to Malaga and Naples.

A new low-fare route by Norwegian to Rio de Janeiro has taken off alongside flights to Miami, San Francisco and summer service to Seattle.
Fares to Rio start at £169.90 one-way as the carrier breaks the current monopoly on direct London to Brazil flights.
A 344-seat Boeing 787 Dreamliner is being used on the service from Gatwick.
New connections to Miami International airport and San Francisco International airport lead in at £175 one way while the summer Seattle service starts at £185.
Norwegian now runs a network of 14 long-haul routes to 12 US destinations and two in South America – Buenos Aires, Argentina and Rio de Janeiro.
The airline claims to serves more destinations in the US non-stop from Gatwick than any other airline in the face of established carriers British Airways and Virgin Atlantic.
Norwegian’s CEO Bjorn Kjos said: “We are delighted to continue to make travelling to South America affordable for all with our new service to Brazil.
“Our route to Rio de Janeiro breaks the monopoly on direct flights between the UK and Brazil and builds upon our expanding services to South America.
“Our extensive network from London Gatwick will give both leisure and business travellers more choice and flexibility when flying with Norwegian on our long-haul routes.
“Our modern fleet of aircraft allow customers to enjoy their trip from the moment they step on board by flying in modern more environmentally friendly and fuel-efficient aircraft.”
Gatwick head of airline relations Stephen King added: “This new route further strengthens Gatwick’s connections to South America continuing our long-standing precedent of championing competition and opening up new destinations and price points for our passengers.
“Brazil further increases Gatwick’s network to the business opportunities provided by the BRIC country economies. While Brazil’s biodiversity, beaches and mountains are famed the world over – making this a highly desirable location for both our business and leisure passengers.
“Today’s new connection is the latest demonstration of the wider trend we are seeing at Gatwick of our airlines increasing frequencies and launching new routes.”
Fred Arruda, Ambassador of Brazil to the UK, said: “This new flight will bring Brazil and the UK even closer together.
“Brazil is known for its wonders and the hospitality of its people and Brazilians across the country wait for British visitors with open arms.”

It does not bother me one bit the UK is a mess, as for democracy, was it that Nadine Norris who ripped of UK tax payers to the tune of $250,000 on expenses and the UK people are so daft they voted her back, just like that Turd Zahawi of startford on avon, ripped offf tax payers to tune of $100,000, brought and sold ISIL oil to Isreal, ripped off your NHS, and still voters are so thick and stupid they vote for these corrupt people.
I dont know facts behind scots referendum, but was it conducted on the basis Scotland was garunteed to stay in European union, Scots voted 62% in favour of staying in Europe, if you have a democracy anfd Scotland is a country, then it decides not some wet headed idiots in your conservative and labour party.
Germany economy makes the UK look like a chairty shop of beggars , like France does.
Amazing how the UK thinks its a empire, when its a country with a P May sitting in downing street while he plots his next robbing expendition with the Capital group ..

Difference in the vote to leave and remain was 1.2 million. Hardly and endorsement. Why is the bar set so low , surely the UK should have had a policy of the margin had to be atleast 55% vote in favour one way or the other.
13 million did not vote and pour research showed by holding a vote on June 23rd meant 2.4 million student in universities etc, were not able to vote, due to there registration for voting being at there home address , where they are registred on electoral roles. How many student could take a day off and travel say 200 miles back to there parent home to vote.
The Politicians are so stupid they held a vote on something important when 2.4 million would have to take at least a day of university, college to get home to vote. Talk about thick UK politicans who devised such a vote and surely people should be fined for not voting .
I dont care whether the UK is in the EU or not, but the UK people need to ask themsleves simple questions, why did the young people get disenfranchised by holding a vote on a weekday , why did it not hold a vote on a weekend or bank holiday, maybe more would have voted to leave or remain.
You need to have really a clear 10% difference to pass such a vote , minimum of 5% differnce would have been a cut off point . You also should fine people for not voting .
Odd thing , when Mrs May went for an early election in 2017, the Conservative party blamed her loss of overall control on Mrs May writing the Conservative manifesto with her two advisors and no cabinet participation.
Conservative MP blamed her for losing control of par,imanet due to the maifesto, now they all say the conservative manifesto they stood on, yet they all complained Mrs May and her tow advosrs who drew it up, were sacked the day after that election in 2017.
UK politics is a by product of UK citizens acceptance of there crooked polititicans who robbed the people during the expense scandal,
