Why should this airline be added?
This airline should be considered in the game, as Novair was a British charter airline founded in 1988 following the acquisition of Cal Air International by the Rank Organisation that inherited a fleet of Boeing 737-400s & McDonnell-Douglas DC-10s at its main operating base at London Gatwick Airport & Manchester Airport. The airline was fighting against decreasing passenger numbers in addition to the Rank organisation losing interest in its travel/aviation subsidiaries. When the airline failed to find a suitable buyer, it ceased operations in 1990.
