I am certainly not anti Wales or anti Cardiff, as a number of my posts have made clear in the past.

I am not in the industry but, as someone of (I think) at least moderate intelligence, I cannot understand why CWL is not better provided for in terms of flights.

I am a fairly regular leisure traveller these days, being retired and paying for myself, and I like all the airports in the south west quadrant of the UK to do well - I like all airlines and airports to succeed of course, but this is my particular interest because this is where I live.

At present BRS and EXT are having an excellent run (as are PLH and NQY in their more modest ways) and I cannot think that CWL will not pick up some of the gravy soon too.

Do you mean Cat III on 09? If so, I have read that the topography of the surrounding land makes this technically difficult if not impossible, but I am not a techie and if I am wrong I am sure someone will correct me.
