JIM FRENCH CBE

Jim French, the ever chirpy Chairman and Chief Executive of Flybe, has become a CBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list.  Jim comes from Duns, Scotland (home of Jim Clark, probably Britain’s finest motor racing champion), and can be descried as a “total aviation person” having initially joined British Caledonian back in 1970, moving to Air UK ten years later and joining the then Jersey European Airways in 1990.  Today Flybe is without doubt Europe’s largest and most successful regional airline, employs 3,000 staff and operates a fleet of 70+ aircraft on 170 routes through 55 airports.
