I have been through EDI 13 times this year and departed from there on Friday 8th.
I have wondered not just about the limited taxiway access to the runway but the taxiways around the apron.
The parallel taxiway (where it runs between the main apron area and the main runway) bisects the main entry/access at the eastern end. So, machines waiting enter/depart the cargo and (what I call) turbo prop area, have to wait for a machine to land, so that the machines waiting for departure can clear the taxiway, so that they can THEN get in or out.
From a pax's observering point in the bright new terminal (that costs a fortune everytime we want to use one of the damm shops or buy a drink)it all looks barmy!
