If one did a search, there was, a good few months ago, an indepth discussion on this subject such as the implications of giving up the franchise and I (think) I remeber news that Loganair were giving up the franchise in the latter stages of this decade, certainly one of BAs franchisee’s were.

I wonder just who knew about BA’s advance plans for the regional business when they sold Loganair another franchise and just how soon after that Loganair found out that BA’s regional wing was going to get sold ?

Sounds a bit like BA could have been a little more forthcoming with the smaller airline/franchisee’s like Loganair, maybe more so than insisting they didn’t quite like Loganair’s Islanders bearing BA livery… :rolleyes:
