Ivory tower?

Ivory Tower. LOL! That will be my porn name when I finally lose interest in the aviation game.

The great thing about Coventry is that there is no need to speculate about the likelihood of...

Reality check

Not been on for long to talk about CVT which I hold dear to my heart:

FACT - regional airport businesses in crisis.

Real support

This has been a bumpy ride for all of us that have kept the faith - of all the bidders who came forward the airport has ended up in the best place. I think Patriot and Sir P have impeccable...

Reality check

Maybe I've been the only one saying, for about 4 years, this ain't ever gonna work. In the ole days everyone was optimistic about the difference a passenger terminal would make while I was observing...

Late accounts

By the way don't get too excited by late filing - it is incredibly common. One bizarre quirk of recent times is that, whilst the Government has been bending over backwards to give businesses a...

Missing the point?

Glad that the point I am making is not being totally lost here.

IF the airport survives without PAX flights it must mean an increase in noise and inconvenience for local residents - so I would...

Noise in Bubbenhall

Runway closures

The 'complete lack of business acumen' is, probably, a harsh assessment - the airport is a big, leaky bucket and 24 hour Ops prior to Thomsonfly was a product of Air Atlantique's need. The knock-on...

Missed the good news?

The future

Well, clearly I have a keen desire to see the airport continue as it was our very first base for Skypartners and we have worked so very hard in a (sometimes) harsh environment to make a go of things....

My opinion as a CVT contractor

Present pax numbers between 600 and 700k so still potential to increase flights by almost a third b4 reaching capacity.
Existing buildings easy to reconfigure without need for further consent....
