19% capacity based on 10 [possible]flight days, 4 flights/day and 8 seats available
..........yet the newspeak from the Council Leader (OT 21/8/08) tells us that 'the uptake has been encouraging'
and 'as the service grows, capacity will increase'.
Even that wealder of the silver scalpal McCaig tell us that had we been present at the opening last week (was it advertised?) we would have seen 'just how busy the airport had become since it was licensed and traffic grows by the day'.
Is 19% encouraging? As for Colonsay, how are we to tell when the figures aren't published? Anecdotally indeed DD, with previous examples, G-SEIL didn't go yesterday morning. No passengers?
