All Peel airports are running at a loss..
pug - interesting article. It seems to say that Peel airports as a whole are making a loss, but doesn't indicate which or how many of the airports are making a loss - although I would suspect that MME at least is making a loss. There is of course the possibility that LPL is making a small profit, but losses at other airports push the group into a loss.

TimmyW - you sound quite negative on DSA. I agree that DSA is not a particularly large airport - but why do you think it's in more trouble than MME ? It does at least have that one thing that all airports seem to crave - namely passengers. For the 12 months to Oct-2011, DSA has 829,079 passengers (more than either Exeter or Inverness), while MME managed just 191,865 according to CAA statistics.
