Very interesting program. Fantastic looking company, two very clever businessmen. Would love to have seen more about Eddie Stobart Trucking, but then again it was about Andrew and William. Would love to know has the latest downturn changed the way this company operates. Thanks for the headsup Chris G6 UXU. Regards Pat.

You are welcome everyone, It was good news that they got the go ahead for Carlisle Airport, I go up there on a regular basis and know the airport manager, needless to say they will all be over the moon because it will mean loads more jobs for the area. Stobarts also own Southend Airport, but I don`t know what plans they have for that project yet.

This was repeated a little while ago. Currently sitting on my PS3 Hard Disk (I have Play TV on it but not sure how to get it from there to another means of viewing).

I found this an interesting look at the two people behind the company. I presumed this was done to coincide with their bid to expand Carlisle Airport.

There were a few trucks on (not surprisingly) when William Stobart (one of the two men behind the current company) got behind the wheel of a truck.
