Why do the residents of Glasgow need 2 airports just for Clydeside and do people really travel so much that there is sufficient air travel demand for two airports to be kept busy ? Greater Glasgow has only about 1.2 million people, not 12 million.

Manchester manages quite happily on one, with Liverpool nearby to provide competition in case MAG gets too monopolistic in its behaviour. Glasgow has Edinburgh nearby to play the role of potential competitor
