Cargo flights are not exempt from the night limits and the flight schedule that I've been told for this operation would use around 90 of the 120 monthly night slots. I should think that if the revenue from this operation exceeds that generated by an equivalent number of bizjet movements then Stobart are happy with that.
Is this the Inflite hangar or Hangar 2 ? The former has been empty I believe for three years or so since Inflite ceased MRO work at SEN though they have continued to use the adjacent workshops for their component overhaul business. Hangar 2 I think houses only a small number of aircraft which could be relocated if necessary.
