Time now for all us Wiggins watchers to move with the times and start using Planestation, the new company identity. The name Wiggins Group plc has now disappeared from the database at Companies House and Planestation is now listed on the LSE website.

So fellow travellers, forget Wiggins, the name of the game is now PLANESTATION. Lets hope it goes like an express train.

Tomorrow will be an exciting day for many with PTG having their first scheduled services running out of Kent International Airport (Manston). What will it do to the share price, anything?

It will be interesting to see how many passengers there are, hopefully they will outnumber the crew!

Socs, It is garuanteed that the first flights will be full, any empty seats would be occupied by PTG/EU staff on a round trip. If they didn't do that they would be letting us all down!

optomistic
Bums on seats is one thing, paying bums on seats quite another. Pray tell me, do you get local information from Manston or would you like me to forward some?

Email received,thanks for the info Socco.

my belief is that mr. may has now formulated whatever strategies he had in mind into a proper forward plan and it will only be good news from here on in.

EU Jet will be on TV tomorrow!

BBC Working Lunch will be at Manston tomorrow!

Come on folks, has nobody any comment on todays riveting tv performance,personally I though it was a PR disaster!! but, maybe i missed something...

Still surprised at chap with that hat keeping it on through interview!

Certainly airport looked swish, but so quiet. As a passenger, I would have thought it looked like heaven!

jparis, it wasn't, it was OK.

Quite positive comments from customers ie. the people who matter.

apple, yes the comments were ok, but nothing to get exited about-unless you like nice coffee and SMALL airports!! which seemed to be the jist of it. However I don't want to seem too negative, it was unfortunate that the in terview was'nt carried out yesterday when it was really busy, ho hum lets see what happens. Looks like I'll be holding this share for a while yet!

I`ve also looked at eu jet for potential bookings. They seem to be pretty competitive and I have a good feeling about them and PTG

There is no competion in Kent for these destinations.

Manston is the obvious choice for people living in Kent for Barecelona, Amsterdam or Dublin or any other destination that EU Jet decides to add.
(except channel tunnel destinations)

Local people seem to be reporting that, currently, outbound flights are better filled than returning flights. Some loads are quite low whilst others are quite well supported, loads of 40 - 60 mentioned for some but as low as 5 or 6 for others. At least one week-end flight to Murcia is reported to be full.

Looks like Redbridge council are also updating their website and inviting comments on the racecourse application.

Lets hope not much longer before decision.
Good Luck

The BBC have commented on the LFG sale.
(as we know the 1.5M is a deposit - not the final sale figure)
Good luck
