"Re Cargo - perhaps should not be treated with disdain"
No not all.....I just wish it was a lot lot more !
We had a brilliant cargo manager who MAG shipped out.... result volumes fell away and whilst we are in a recession the airport mangement can hide under this cover !
Just out of curiosity is traffic (pax or cargo) down at Heathrow ?
Busiest ever july and a 1% increase for Oct 2009 over 2008 !
.....Yes the airline industry is in some turmoil but Manchester traffic is falling off a cliff !
