When they wake up in the bunker they will realise that being at BOH is a financial disaster. By then Palmair would be long gone. The airport is a"local airport" it has poor road links and public transport is a joke. 50% of the catchment area is water and to the North forest. There is a limited catchment area that could be easily be persuaded to go to another close by airport based on the price of a ticket.

Palmair have for many years seen off the competition but this time deep German pockets rule the roost.

I wonder if the great Manchester team can translate their undoubted skills to a corner shop. It is a bit like asking Stuart Rose to run your local newsagent. They do not understand the difference between a supermarket and a local corner (airport) shop.

By the way before I do not and never have worked for the Baths but I have watched regional airports and their inept management for years.

Bring back Harry Longhurst quickly
