Mr Parlby another management consultant with his finger on the pulse.

"Scale back the operation and costs thus lessoning the need for Air Traffic Control Services, Radar and bar services"

Plymouth has no Radar costs as it does not have radar. The airport is on a hill
and has to a have a certain level of ATC service in order for operators to use the instrument procedures otherwise expect the aircraft only be able to land 50% of the time from October to April.

I know Mr Parlby why don't the chamber of commerce just provide one of those chaps with two table tennis bats at the end of the runway.

In fact here is a better piece of advice . If you do not know what you are talking about, do not comment or talk to people who do first to get you facts right.
