MHK says it would create jobs and reduce patient transfer costs
An airline backed by the Isle of Man Government could be a profitable business.
That's according to Garff MHK Martyn Perkins, who says the Island needs more security over its air routes.
The chief minister confirmed talks to have more Aurigny-operated services are taking place, with a report due next month.
As well as creating jobs, Mr Perkins believes having two aircraft for Manx routes would make financial sense:
So is now the time for the Isle of Man to have its own airline?
Mr Perkins thinks so.
He's been speaking to Sian Cowper:
Manx Care asks all GPs to formally adopt Jess's Rule
Government 'taking rising fuel prices seriously'
Motion to sell Old Castletown Police Station to be put before Tynwald
DOI issues 'final' offer to bus drivers
