Just when I saw British Company doing Holiday Charters made me wonder

I doubt it will be a very nice impact if they lose.

I heard that it was billions that they were after. Whatever the amount, it is likely to have a good impact on the company.

Correct – a fantastic book is “British Independent Airlines 1946-1976” by A.C. Merton Jones published by The Aviation Hobby Shop. Kestrel Airways was founded at Lydd in October 1970 with C-47 G-AMFV to undertake ad-hoc pax & freight charter work. They moved to EMA in 1971, adding the Viscount G-AVJB to the fleet in March 1972. They did some work on behalf of Northeast, BMA & Dan-Air and went out of business in November 1972.
Its a fascinating book, packed with information and scary to look at the index and realise how few airlines have survived from that time.

I would very much doubt it.
