Proceeding contribution from Lord Deben (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 11 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on Heathrow.

Does the hon. Lady agree that the reason for that is the financial mechanism according to which aviation companies are run? If they can keep aeroplanes in the sky, because the costs go on in any case, they can make money even if they carry just five passengers to Manchester. That is inevitable given the way the leasing of aircraft operates.
