If HIAL / Scottish Govt (or even Dundee city council) were to decide to stop subsidising Dundee as a passenger airport, you can bet that politics demands some impeccably good reasons for doing so. Private sector companies have more commercial freedom but public sector would need to show that no stone had been left unturned before the capacity for passenger ops at an airport is "mothballed".
