Has anybody seen the planned layout when it's finished?
Not sure where the new deicing area is going to be built or even if it will be built as it was an option on the tender for the new taxiway. If built would it be a better location than the south stands which is handy for both 08 and 26 departures. Also as suggested by Falcon666 what happens to a new deicing area if built when it is not being used in summer? Long term parking for biz jets seems a good idea.
