The plan for Carlisle is to build Stobbards new state of the art head quarters on the south side of the airport. The current runway will be scrapped and a brand new one built parallel to it just further north (subject to national heritage as the roman wall goes through the airport). The existing control tower will go etc.
The Freight flights will initially be small or medium turbo props to service the Scottish islands for a Stobbart customer. B737 are a possibility for the future.
