Commercial air traffic has doubled at Norwich during the last 10 years
Looking at todays departures we can all see that the total number of commercial flights FROM here, ignoring the duplicate schedule entries (obviously put there to make the number look even more impressive!
) is..........
18!!!. Many of these being oil platform helicopter departures and only 9 'proper' commercial aircraft.
Norwich International will always struggle to survive (let alone expand) due to it's location and the transport infrastructure in the area. Does it need this Class D airspace...I don't think so.
