Please Ben, I can see you are new, but you are trying my patience. WAN are well meaning but some of them don't see what is self evident. There is no business case for CWL's existence at the moment. This will likely change with a change of ownership, but, like Greece, it is delusional to think that a White Knight will ride in and save the day.

Sorry I add this to underline the point, today Cardiff INTERNATIONAL! Airport
had no ILS,DME, or NDB operational. Therefore, the only instrument approach available was a SRA, something I haven't done for 25 years. Thankfully, it was a fine day for a visual approach, but honestly, what sort of airport allows all of its landing facilities to be u/s at the same time?
