Can you confirm what discussions you’ve had with the Civil Aviation Authority regarding a new base and the hours that pilots will be able to fly for, especially with the new night-time flights in North Wales?

Discussions with the CAA are the responsibility of the Air Operations Certificate holder, and will be for the new operator in 2024 to address. We have communicated our proposals for extended hours to those companies participating in our aviation procurement process and no concerns have been raised. Likewise, our aviation consultants can see no issues.
