Passengers arriving from Pakistan at MAN
Ian - that is true! Not so many years ago I used to quite often get a flight from BRU that arrived at MAN just after a PIA 747 from Pakistan. It was a race to run with hand-luggage only to the car park before taxis carrying PIA passengers started streaming out of the airport to destinations in Manchester, Lancashire, West and South Yorkshire. Obviously there were loads of private cars as well but I couldn't tell where they came from.
If I was a bit delayed, it was like a convoy along the M67 and the Woodhead Pass A628 - you can see where I live - and S Yorks is not exactly known as a great area of Pakistan-ancestry people. At one stage Shaheen had a vague idea of flying to DSA.
I just wonder if the LBA service introduced since that time has reduced that mad hour!
