Why then are they investing in a Cat III ILS for Bournemouth, 2 for Mcr and a Controlled Airspace application for Humberside. I know Rob, he's a good bloke who is well regarded by MAG.
Nothing against the man himself, just the fact HUY has gone right downhill.

If MAG shut ringway handling does make you wonder if theyre sending the former MD to HUY to run it down properly, why MAG Plc need HUY now is anyones guess and someone should be offered the opportunity to come in and try make a go of it.

As for less cargo flights, another nail in the coffin. How long before KLM go and Eastern get a better offer at DSA (cause the market is saturated) Such a shame the major tour operator keen on the regions has a major base at DSA and needs to pull back to the bases to ride out a potential storm next year.

Could 2010 mean the end for HUY as an airport and more as a GA facility till someone wants to build an 'eco town'?
