Which isnt going to work too well with the new stupidity of rubbing elbows instead of shaking hands.

That just changes the source of the air, not the level of recirculation.

Well, it's arguable that the compressor *is* the first stage of a jet turbine!

Dear me Rodders.
You're having such a good run there, swapping posts with Tim " Please don't feed the trolls" Downie.
But now you seem to have become confused and are replying your own posts,
Did you get mixed up and think you were replying to Rod ?
Never mind, Tim "Trained Scientist" Streater will probably be along later and he won't have noticed, so no worries there.

I flew to Guernsey with Flybe? on one of those about 15 years ago and there was a horrible smell of something in the cabin, not unlike travelling on an ancient bus relegated to the school run.

0.7% of a huge annual fuel usage is actually a lot of money to an airline. Remember how much money an airline saved by reducing the number of olives on one of its in-flight meals by 1 or 2 per plate.
Just like our overseas aid budget that is 'only' a similar percentage.

About a third of the rail fare. Probably undersold themselves.
Could be a tax wangle for Virgin though.
