But all of that is papering over the cracks - T1 is over the hill ..a lumbering old hulk that has had various extensions and lean tos 'nailed on' over the years. It certainly is grim up North when you arrive into this hole.
Agree with the comments on GM by the way - don't I remember some Strategic MasterPlan or some sort being hyped around the local media around the T2 opening that forecast 30M pax pa by 2005 ???- presumeably GM at this stage was in a senior management role and therefore signed up to this fanciful prediction.
He therefore has missed his target by 8M pax.....but still got the bonuses
