Most of Luton's councillors probably believe that LTN's still like this.
It'll be interesting to see what happens at LTN if the LibDems get control of the Council in the May elections. After all, their national policy appears to be that air travel should cease and everyone should holiday by bicycle. However, the local LibDems do at least realise that there's more money to be made in aeroplane passengers than in cyclists. Should make for some interesting local politics - and goodness knows, Luton could do with something interesting.
Are Silverjet 767s now gracing the tarmc daily?
Yes, and averaging around 80 pax per flight. Terminal looks stunning and well-equipped inside but unfortunately, the outside remains standard LTN grot with the usual assortment of winos, druggies, odd characters, dodgy cars, discarded rubbish and disgusting waste bins.
Then there's the nightmare drive into and out of the Airport, not to mention the M1 widening works both of which can just as easily shaft you in a Roller or Merc as in a Fiesta or Kar.
