Frank. Did you actually read my post?-it will help you with your points. Leeds east airport will be a fit for purpose number 1 airport of choice for the whole of Yorkshire and the Humber (bigger population than Norway) when fully developed. Meadowhall 15 min. Doncaster 15 min. Leeds 10 min. Hull 30 min. etc It will be a Yorkshire airport as it will be the quickest, easiest and most accessible airport for all but the very south of sheffield. ECML HS2 HS3 should be a big enough clue for you combined with recent developments. Night.
