Have to say I am intrigued by this 1:1000 ratio.

I don’t think I actually said that 7000 would be employed at the airport. As far as I am aware neither did Peel. As mentioned in my previous post the 7000 was the figure banded about, initially by employment agencies in Doncaster, as the number of potential jobs that could be generated in the area, as a direct/indirect result of the airport.
‘The industry thought it risable as the math is 1 per 1000 pax’
I assume from this you are in the industry or a related industry? If so your credentials to the matter greatly surpass mine, so who am I to argue. However, what I see here in South Yorks, particular the Doncaster area, are employment agencies recruiting en masse for projects in and around the airport. It’s hard evidence for all to see.

As for the reality syringe…………it’s nice to know you’ve got one on hand. They say the lower the reality, the higher the fantasy, and you being a HUY supporter, just might need it.
