Really?  OAG lists six airlines (British Midland, Ryanair, Go, British
Airways, Easyjet, and ScotAirways) flying LON->GLA for a total of 51
non-stops in each direction each day.  They are all roughly scheduled
for about 1:15.  Even with airport transfers, surely it beats even the
fastest train (seems to be Virgin, just over 5 hours total via Euston;
most othars are about 5:30) by several hours.
