G-AWZK. A very good post sir. The only thing I would add is apparently the airport made more off the recent A318 maintenance in 2 months than some of these so called hangar investors were willing to pay for rent in a 2 year period. So in that regard I applaud the airport as it is can no longer act as a charity.
Very concerning for me are the similarities between Blackpool and Prestwick, and we all know where Blackpool is heading unless there is an 11th hour deal to save it.
