You must think that if HIAL take over they will bring a general degree of professialism to the running of the airport. With due respect to the City Council, they have built it up from its humble beginnings, but it now takes a lot of time and money to run an airport and that is time which i dont think they have.
I have spoken to quite a few people down at the airport and they are completely in the dark with regards to a takeover, all they have heard are the same rumours as everyone else and as someone put it "are getting quite peeved off" with not being told anything by the council.
As for flights into and out of Dundee, eastern did the shortlived Manchester route and Loganair have been previously linked to the airport, so who knows................(HIAL and Dundee City Council !!!)
