I realise that this isn't what you want to hear, but not everyone living in Yorkshire can be catered for by LBA. That's not just to do with runway length, weather, topography or ground access, but is also related to demand for various onward destinations. The fact is that London, and to a lesser extent Manchester, will always be able to offer a wider range of destinations than LBA, so some of the local population are going to have to travel beyond the LBA catchment area to find flights to destinations for which there is not sufficient demand in Yorkshire alone.

90% of the population of W & S Yorkshire are automatically programmed robots into travelling over to MAN in their big 4x4's /People carriers etc!!

As a 'Pressing priority' LBIA needs to Urgently educate the people of Yorkshire that it is uneccassary to drive an hour to MAN just to save 10.00 each or whatever little money (If any)they save?

It has never made sense to me??

But educating the people of Britain, Is like educating pork!!

Most people are simply 'Brain dead' when it comes to Airports and how they work & function etc, Or they have no 'interest' in it whatsoever, Good for them.

As they say on a daily basis - 'It is just like sitting on a bus' yeah right!!

Very similar Lol!!

(Stopping the people of Yorkshire travelling to MAN Airport is like stopping dogs peeing in a park)Lol!!

They are already programmed into doing it, So really they will not change will they?

(If people knew as much about Air Travel than their precious mobile phones then the Industry would blossom)Lol!!
