I have absolutely no doubt that in time DSA will become the main airport of Yorkshire and North Midlands. I am not dissing LBA, its just that I believe DSA is far better placed, both logistically and realistically, for expansion. I do, however, feel you are being disrespectful to HUY. HUY is not a mickey mouse operation and it will continue to grow. Not in respective proportion to DSA, but nevertheless it will grow. Rather than try to discredit HUY, please try and embrace the fact that the region between Hull and Sheffield have two airports, both of whom are increasing operations and giving its people a choice of destinations and AIRPORTS of origin. This surely should be applauded, not criticised.
I can leave my home just outside Hull and can be at DSA in 45 minutes and HUY in 20 minutes. Is this just great or what? I have a colleague in Scunny who can be at either airport in 25 minutes!!
I think it is absolutely fantastic and long may it last.
