Just worked out, out of interest, how many aircraft (commercial only) will be on the ground at MAN at 0500 in the morning....I get it to 82 !
I think there are 90 odd stands, and some of them can't be used at the same time depending on a/c size...so you could say its bursting at the seams at 0500.
51 depart between 0600 and 0755, so it soon eases, but it does highlights the extent of the early morning problem, and why it may cause issue if you arrive early.
