Great set there Matt! LSAD Lookin’ gooood 😎 And doesn’t the TOM 762 look small!

My word, the government really are torn on this subject. The only way the UK can work by rail, is if high-speed railways are built, that can take speeds of TGV or ICE proportions, and Rod Eddington has told the government not to bother with this project!

And with the rise in fares at the turn of the year, all the Train Operating Companies and Network Rail have done, is to detter more people from traveling by rail. It can be cheaper sometimes to fly than use the Railways.

Desptie the fact that i use the rail system, on a weekly or daily basis, its absoultley crap compared to the likes of many European systems, notably the Swiss!
It took me 5hrs to get home from Liverpool by train on Wednesday, when it could have taken 90 mins by car. So that meant i could have flown LPL-GVA-LPL, in the time it took.

The only way the government can make the system work, is by Nationalising it, but with some Franchises lasting well into 2 decades away, i don’t see this happening any time soon. Now, please tell me why the Tories did it?!? 😮

SWA do have a row of seats that face backwards, but they are only in their Classic 737’s i believe. In a Magazine on SWA, it said that they don’t have them on the 73G for comfort reasons 🙁

Great stuff mate! Looks like you were at MAN as i was taking off. I was in LSAD to GVA at about 15:15 🙂

But who cares if you are bussed or given an airbrige??
Does it make you sway towards choosing an airline, if you feel so degraded that you are being bussed to your aircraft??

Next time i get bussed to an aircraft, i’ll complain to the operating company, in fact i’ll write to Zoom asking them why the hell i was given a bus to get to Terminal two after a 9hr flight from Vancouver back in March!

And if i’m bussed next Sunday, i’ll write to Jet2 to complain.

Sorry, but who cares!!
