-----from the point of view of airline management.

The guaranteed slots at Heathrow to which my colleague, Deputy Carey, alluded earlier are of considerable value. Mr. Walsh seemed to indicate he did not think there was any particular threat to them immediately, but are those slots at a particular time? Are they not early-morning and late-evening slots into and out of Heathrow, which would be particularly valuable, given the demand for business passenger flights in and out of Heathrow because, obviously, it is in London?
