clock is still ticking..a summary

financil year figures will be available soon...usually march/april time? cant see any joy there ?

as said earlier no business in there right mind would want to take on a proven failing entity which is DTV.Why throw good money after. bad.
the infrastucture is too far gone.Runway is in need of attention,taxyways inneed of attention.New rules re security and payments.No airlines prepared to take any risks.No or little will to provide incentives to start up airlines and lets face it no passengers!!

it can only survive 9-5 privately with no passenger expense.At least the region would have some employment.

its really no big deal to have no passenger services..pleanty of other cities/towns are in the same boat..lets face it . Leeds/manchester and newcastle can easily support the 190K passengers.Would the teesseide area actually miss it..all it is bringing is bad publicity to an area which needs it like a hole in the tees.
