So.........
They've started work on the new pier.
The tower should be operational this month.
bmi and other airlines have slated Edinburgh Airport as being slow to expand.

What future for the airport of Scotland's capital?
To start the ball rolling I'd like to see prop aircraft like FlyBe and BA Citiexpress etc moved form the main terminal (inlcuding the new pier) and put out on remote stands. This would necessitate the BAA to actually employ some bus drivers to coach passengers to these aircraft, a novel concept for the BAA. This would free up stands for the bigger aircraft. Would also reduce congestions etc etc.
Discuss!
