"It's hard to see what else BEE are going to do at SOU with the 195's gone and no meaningful runway extension possible"

I second the sentiment, however an extension is possible at the north end but needs land acquisition plus obstacle removal/reduction, and resolution of tree problems at the south end (which I indicated to my then lords and masters in 2000) to have any significant impact on take-off weight increases.

Is there any interest by the airport owners, who by all accounts are trying to off load SOU and other airports in the group?
