By not getting e-Jets for a start. With the noise-related charges at LHR for e-jets, anyone considering flying 170s/190s etc into Heathrow needs their head examined.

Until or unless the obstacles on departure from runway 20 are remediated, pretty much any airline operating at Southampton whether with ATR72, A319 or Embraer 145 will continue to see limitations. ...

The 145 doesn't do too badly for baggage. Max I can recall is 768kgs for 47 pax which is a pretty high average. The ATR is more flexible for loading volume but probably not wildly different in...

yes but not at LM fares unfortunately. BE captured this market with cheap(ish) ticket prices combined with frequency.

Think you might have gotten it the wrong way around. There are a lot of cruise...

I sometimes wish there was a guide to airline economics and why airlines do things. If there was, I wouldn't have to keep explaining to someone who seems very long on opinions but very short on...

I'd challenge you to fly the emergency turn procedure off R20 in the sim and tell me that this has got little to do with safety! For those operating in and out of SOU on a daily basis, the airport's...

It will be an improvement in safety without doubt. The current procedures for an OEI departure off R20 comply with the requirements but rule out a straight-ahead climb on one engine because of these...

I’d love to know from what knowledge base you make that statement. The additional runway length has made a massive difference to the E145 performance. I understand ATR72 aircraft which have seen...

For one, I am so glad no-one listens to armchair banter like this as the basis for making decisions.

The Q4 is a very different and much more complex aircraft and also one which is out of...

We were apparently offered a load of Q400s when Flybe fell over, and even at zero lease rentals, the chief said they weren't cheap enough! They're horribly complex aircraft requiring massive...
