Akro old mate,
Can't rent floor space in an ILS, so no return on"Investment".
Possibly wasn't such a great idea to hand prime real estate to property developers, especially when public interest infrastructure is perched on it that requires investment now and into the future. The return on "investment" will win every time, just look at BN. The developers want the users to invest the money to build a runway so they can charge them landing fees. Imagine if all the profits Mc Bank and others have pocketed, not to mention directors fees and bonuses had been invested back into airport infrastructure? Hell we could have had runways paved with gold!!
