FLYBE EMB's at LDY

It would be good news for Derry/ Londonderry / Legen..............Oh whateverderry

It would be yet another few less £1 coins for BFS, It could be the end for BFS if LDY get Flybe . Great airline and able to get bums on seats

With the airport being turned in to a proper airport and not a council run
landing strip. It will give other airlines a feeling of security for their investment

But the thing is would it be a waste of time spending money on a rail station?
Dont get me wrong but NI people love their cars and 4X4's and getting people to walk 300m from a train station would just not work
Translink have great trains but they are still not going to get people on them when they can drive the big BMW up to the door ( well nearly)
The money would be better spent on other projects.
But what ever they do they must not charge for drop offs!

All they have to do is rename it
I think "Phil Coulter International" He could write a wee song about it
A bit like the one he did for " Supper Gran" with Billy Connoly would be great
