LONDON (ShareCast) - BBA Aviation Chief Executive, Simon Pryce, on Friday traded in 85,000 shares, reducing his stake in the FTSE 100 group to 989,720.
Pryce sold the shares at 321.26p each, pocketing £273,070.

The UK company’s announcement followed a statement on September 8th by DAE that said discussions were off. BBA said in August that the companies were in preliminary talks and that a deal was not certain.
On Monday the group's target price was upped by Westhouse Securities from 320p to 345p.
