Speaking of RYR, I see mention was made in the local press that Michael Cawley had reaffirmed RYR's intention, as previously stated by his boss, that the airline would look to launch euro routes from ABZ to Germany, Scandi & possibly Italia if the runway was extended.
With this knowledge, can't the Bee Aay Aay extend the terminal AND runway hand-in-hand, instead of doing one first, then the other (the runway) in 2008.
What's the point of getting approval from the Cooncil after placing great emphasis on how the extension was VITAL for both airport & the local economy, only to then wait a year after approval was given before contructing about half of the extension. I struggle to see the sense.
You may as well get the 300m in now, get it over with, AS WELL AS constructing new stands, extending the terminal & so forth. It looks as if ABZ will need all of these developments soonest.
