footster,
On another note take a look at the statements of Berkeley Hanover.
Whoever on god's earth decided that these people are aviation experts when they don't even know of the current passenger aircraft types, currently in production, capable of PLH operations?
They seem to have placed great emphasis on the airport being doomed due to only two such aircraft types being in production!
And of these 12 airlines they approached how many of these currently operate appropriate aircraft types or did they approach Airbus, Boeing, Jetstream, Bombardier etc. operators who, of course, would have absolutely no interest in PLH operations?
This smells of cooking ... 'Cooking the Books'.
