It is encouraging to read that there maybe an offer for the airport. My avaition involvment stands at 30 years and having spent a period at STN 72-74 and having seen the likes of LTN and a number of regional airports birth and growth, I cannot see who is going to purchase MSE. In the last 20 pages it has been said so many times that the airport has never made any monies nor attracted regular traffic (excepting GA and cargo). I believe it has even had a number of SSC charters but this is all history and it will take a blind man surely to invest. Futhermore if there are fiscal issues to resolve these may takes months or even years. That said I hope something does turn up as arriving at LHR today you realise what a dump it is and many must wish for flts from there local airports, hassle free.
