    Please don’t drag PM discussions onto the board. It is bad manners and does not further the topic of the thread.

    So can we get a detailed communication from you as to what is the deal regarding issues discussed to finally once and for all end all rumors etc. It might even restore a chunk of credibility which you admit you have lost.

    Nono its quite alright to positively discriminate against the overweight, gives them an incentive to get fitter. Thats the way the NHS seems to be moving anyway.

    Whoops, another thread verring towards GD :p

    As a thin person I would have to agree.

    cloud 9 the way BA run it is they have pilots and well known shrinks talk to the crowd and then take them up in i think an A319 or B737 and with like commentary from PF (i.e. one not doing ATC) of what all the noises are.

    At roughly £235 each (BA price) for say 150 people (rough seat num of all econ B737/A319) thats £35,250.

    Your Aircraft lease for that will be approx £20,000 for a flight (depends on airport using) and you may have to pay for for a live commentary as they may feel the need to put a third pilot in to do this.

    Then for the whole day a shrink will set you back at least £10k for the kind of one that could remove their fears in one day. Then you have to get a Captain to talk them through what is going on. Remember the more senior the more they will trust them. So thats going to be at least £1-3K for a day. Then there are your general helpers costs which at average of £10 an hour (industry standard cost price) £500 for the day. Then your Marketing Costs of at least £700 (these are hard to reach ppl remember) to market to them then the costs of a website which is probably around £100 a year before the design of the site. Then the Hotel Room Rental and AV Stuff and Buffet lunch would be approx £2k.

    So you income is £35,250
    Total Expenses is £36,300

    Profit Minus £1050

    Cant order aircraft or buy new ones already on order either AFAIK. Hence why some orders with i think Airbus where dropped by United and then UA are opening new loco feeder as it can buy aircraft as new company.

    Maybe our Long Haul “crew” would be best to answer this given mainly talking about B747 A340 etc…

    All i heard was someone let a canister go in Cargo hold once and it was bye bye to the dog in there!
