Yesterday, Mr Morton said he hoped the airport could break even within two to three years. Mr Morton highlighted the fact that Robin Hood's long runway made it attractive for cargo flights.

He said: "We had eight freighters in and out of the airport in the last month. We are always trying to look for scheduled cargo traffic. It adds to the diversity of the airport.
Wow thats one every 86 hour....sure is attracting the freighters

He added: "We're second only to Luton in terms of destinations to Poland. Even with the downturn in the economy, the demand is still there."
Clutching at straws or what..it is not number of flights, number of passengers but number of destinations in (to) Poland

next it will be
Donnie International did almost 3% of the number of flights that the local microlight school did
Didnt the Airspace Change Proposal say 3 m pax or something like that by 2010?
