Just been having a chuckle re-reading the City of Derry " Master plan" from 2012. The CAA figures show a 6% decline to 386,171 passengers instead of moving towards the 480,000 to 550,000 expected by 2015. Does this merit a re-working of the 10 year plan given that it was based on figures that are so clearly wrong. I would think that the losses at the airport have increased and the percieved benefit to the economy had decreased. Does anyone know how the business case is loooking? The assunmtions on page 37 are flawed and the projected 2050 figures seem to be little more than a number plucked from thin air and a graph drawn to support continuous growth. If the graph was redrawn to take account of the previous years and what has happened in the last 12 months since it was written it would be clear to see the predictions are a mile out.
How much does the airport loose PA?
