The location of the airport is critical! The airport cannot be stuck miles from motorway and main rail on top of a 700ft hill top! Cork/Copenhagen is the empiric proof that population is not being used and is being divided up (despite linking up with football teams and having giant posters!)
Unbelievable. So you actually in your rather unusual mind believe that 7.7 million a year in Yorkshire want to go to America..................
