I absolutely did not say that MAG shouldn't waste money on EMA - on the contrary, improving the passenger terminal, and parking facilities to international standards would be money well spent - that check-in extension looks like a discarded B @ Q without the racking - and why are their no ulti-storey car parking facilities?
There are better uses for any money that MAG has to spend on EMA than an extra few metres of runway that will take years to pay for themselves. You only have to look at Cardiff for an example of some extra concrete that really hasn't produced anything in the way of long-haul traffic (Don't mention the BA maintenance facility - empty 777s and & 747s don't need 3000 metres of runway).
