Hello RSOL

Re Cargo Ops from Newquay. No logic in your idea of landing at Newquay as it is the first port of call across the pond. These aircraft go to hubs that link up with flights from Asia Africa etc. eg Liege, Leipzig East Midlands or Luxemburg. From these hubs smaller aircraft feed other airports in Europe. Newquay could only be at best a feeder airport and not a hub. Just out of interest look up the DHL operation from Leipzig. You would soon realise that Newquay airport is too small and that includes the hangars.
