doesn't EMA have a better claim to the name "Robin Hood" than DSA
DSA is about two miles from Nottinghamshire; is nearer to the Major Oak than EMA; Robin Hood had connections with Barnsdale in north Doncaster and Loxley in Sheffield. Haven't exactly seen tourists flocking here just because of the name though! The statue of him at the airport is superb - shame we haven't got a few more passengers to see it.
