Ref Peel / KL
DTV Peel man says that Peel will support KLM for 12 months and beyond.
Was that a hint of a time scale mentioning 12 months?
Yes Beafer I believe they will, why? :-

The reason that this has surfaced at all is in all likelihood that KL are extremely concerned as to the current situation at DTV & hence the performance of their AMS route.
On the other hand then Peel "need" to have KL on board for the short term i.e. at least the next 12 months in order that they are able to continue to promote that their redevelopment plan is in fact built around a viable?? commercial airport. Otherwise Peel's whole position becomes that more untennable in that they have simply shut the airport down & put in the bulldozers. With such a scenario, it may become that much more difficult for those that have or will subsequently gain to line their pockets & the plan would become a much more transparant and straight forward redevelopment of land, which may lead to a public enquiry.
