Had time now to look more closely at the planning application. On the site layout 2 of 2 it mentions that the Ocean Sky building by the south stands has temporary consent that expires on 1 January 2014. The plan shows two road layouts for the coach park, phase 1 goes around Ocean Sky and Phase 2 goes through the middle of their building. It would seem that the south stands will become airline stands from that date.
The plan also shows that on both phase 1 and 2 the coach lane clings to the airside fence and goes through easyjet’s car park.
There will be a second set of traffic lights to let cars into and out of the mid term car park.
It is clear that any thought of turning the short term car park into aircraft stands has now been abandoned.
The problem with building east of twy D is that is the site of the old Council refuse tip
Then Harrods hangars were built they were pulling out rubbish that looked like it had just been buried.
