Dundee - I always thought Tayside Aviation was doing quite nicely?
I think they are poodling along OK (it's a flying school innit), the airport however is in terminal decline (no pun intended) , with passenger numbers one third of what they were in 2008.

Lots of reasons for that - no doubt technically different from Newquay, but with the same outcome - economically non-viable, being kept alive on subsidies.

There is talk of a direct flight to Amsterdam - that would be a result for TOFO !!
