Im not sure why they would be in a rush to demolish anything, except for the terminal there isn’t really all that much to demolish anyway. What they may do though is sell off the navigation and landing aid equipment and remove the numbers from the runways. I’m sure they won’t do this in haste, particularly whilst they’re still apparently in discussion with potential investors.
Agree with the above though, a CPO won’t happen. The only chance of the airport reopening is a sale of the land to a private sector investor, and given the airport probably won’t be worth as much as an airport as it would be something else, it will require a great deal of good will from Peel and/or a significant investment from the private sector. Still up in the air.
