The Evening Gazette isn't exactly a reputable newspaper and since when has Joe Public had a clue about operating airports??
Peel may have their faults, but I wouldn't take a great deal of notice of what that article states.What the airport has been finding at their consultation events, and FoDTVA too at their meetings, is that people have been crashing in with both feet and attacking the airport, then when they've had the master plan explained to them and their questions answered, they've left feeling quite pleased.
Wake Up & Smell the coffee! - DTV is finished as an airport in any sense we would wish to see. Peel are determined to implement
their plan to maximise potential for their "investment"! in whatever way they see fit. If you believe their spin - then more the fool you!
