Thanks to Paul Clare for the info.
I suppose we are back to the point about the airline/handling agent acquiring equipment to load/unload the cargo deck on a wide body freighter at MAN - if this does appear then it won't be very busy just servicing a B777F twice a week. Then the question of whether other cargo operators could be tempted to MAN given that wide body freighters could now be handled?
Anyway, encouraging news if cargo operations do begin again at MAN.
