Just on the comment or two about MAG airports better profit % than STN etc.
MAG had no control of the outcome of 2013 at STN at all where as they did at all other MAG airports where airlines had plans in place for 2013, that was not the case in STN. With 2014 looking well for STN and if FR bring the pax, STN could easily pass MAN out in a few years time in profitable terms.
I do agree MAG do need to invest a little capital in MAN to improve certain things.
