yeah - think its a short unwinding - certainly looking good so far.... Need to break 49p though before change in the wind.

Blackrock unwinding short on the 15/2 and 16/2 and possibly more since then.

...is it even vaguely possibly that an International Airline might want to get a good hold in the UK airline business via taking over Flybe?
I keep thinking that now Flybe is all dusted down and pointing in the right direction someone might want to buy the whole thing while its really cheap.... Say for about 70-90p range. This has happened to so many UK companies over the years - the one I remember the best is Arcadia (Topshop) .... Recovered to about 49p and then all hell broke lose , I think eventually sold for about £5 a share.

Perhaps our tipping point will be 49p - its going to be an interesting ride

About time we saw some positive price action. Salty

Starting to wake up.

Chunky trades going through and we're past £100 mill mkt cap. Like to think our pre tax profits will be that in less than 18 months.

s34icknote: As well as normal cyclical recovery in airlines FLYBE has the ADDED advantages THIS YEAR of:

a)cutting journey time from midlands to cornwall from 4 hour drive to 1 hour flight (this is a major expansion of flights):


b) UK OIL INDUSTRY: With NEW Heathrow to Aberdeen flights - FlyBe have caught the revival of interest in North Sea Oil just right. Just look at HUR's (West of Shetland) share price... Flybe have got in at the right time and at the right price


c) Really hot UK summer - ideal for UK based holidays (and thus internal flights):


d) HEATHROW
Speaks for itself

(any expansion of Heathrow will also increase the number of FlyBe customers)

e) Warren Buffett
He sells walmart and buys airlines and apple... No smoke without fire!

f) more more more


g) less less less
It says its acquisition of the 13 aircraft – the 10 from Nordic and the three from Rand – will reduce costs by £4 million over 2016-17 and, afterwards, by a further £8 million per year.


h) average
Taking the five year view of cycles, the average price should be around 60p (mid cycle), top ends of cycles around about £1.40... Since we're miles below even this average figure we can probably say we're near the bottom of the airline cycle

I might put my profits in here ! ?

[netcurtains] 17/2/2017 08:40

yeah - I took an oath about 10 years ago never to buy an oil company again. I'm glad you're making loads but I'll not be joining you! I'm sticking with the "B"...

[s34icknote] 17/2/2017 08:18

Hey netYou watching fog ?Sicknote

[mreasygoing] 16/2/2017 14:48

Should see some movement soon In the share price. It's like a coiled spring.

[netcurtains] 15/2/2017 19:55

...here is the link:


From link:
"
Berkshire also reported a $9.3 billion airline stake, with investments topping $2.1 billion in each of American Airlines Group, Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines and United Continental Holdings.
"

If you think about it FLYBE would make a great fit for some major international airline to enable it to totally crack open the UK market!

TONIGHTS EVENING STANDARD
=========================

Warren Buffet sold a load of Walmart shares ($900M) and bought with the proceeds AIRLINE COMPANIES and APPLE SHARES

Could be good news for FlyBe if billionaires are moving back into airlines

[bostonborn] 14/2/2017 11:08

Hopefully she will also buy some directly, with her own money. That would be more of a confidence booster, to suffering shareholders (and the share price)!!!!

[anony mous] 14/2/2017 11:02

Cristine the new CEO just given 1.3million shares as incentive plan.

[netcurtains] 13/2/2017 12:04

I'm holding until Jan 1st 2018.. Its my stock to double and I still think it will.... Just needs a pretty AVERAGE YEAR and all will be well ... In my opinion.

[anony mous] 13/2/2017 12:00

dahYes. My avg is about that too.I'm thinking that if this hasn't gone up under Saad's time then not sure how it will go up now.Really not sure what to do.Shame really since Flybe did and still does look pretty good. Just seems so unloved.

[dahhad] 13/2/2017 11:41

I'm in the same boat Anony Mous but am going to hang on for at least the next set of figures. I can't see any way that the share price will increase significantly without some confidence being restored and that will take time and good figures IMHO. I'm averaging 90p cost and just haven't the heart to go in again at these levels!

[anony mous] 13/2/2017 11:12

Taking forever.Held and added last 3 yrs.Might just take a hit and sell.Lots going on elsewhere.

[kumala] 09/2/2017 19:49

Its all pretty zz zz zz at the moment.....:/K

[netcurtains] 09/2/2017 12:09

come on -lets get this over 49p at least!!!!!!!!!! Its embarrassing, I have this as my mudbath pick too.

[netcurtains] 07/2/2017 18:34

time waits for no man
Quite pleased about the Heathrow to Aberdeen slots - with oil back on the agenda, and HUR (West of Shetland doing well)...

[macarre] 07/2/2017 16:46

CEO been there a while??? It's been only a few weeks...
