Perhaps as per a previous poster STN rather than a fly in the ointment is the elephant in the room...The maxing out of London`s capacity as per another poster is just a chimera for the misguided to chase or wish for....extra capacity is always found....STN & LTN have grown exponentially by not waiting for said but building & working their own accepted markets......Meanwhile STN/MAG are driving toward the max use of the existing R/W which present numbers state as 42M P.A. but as we know will creep north of that...LCY is also moving ahead with previously rejected plans..So a pincer movement going on....not to mention new R/W`s for LHR/LGW/STN....The other mirage chased by Stobart originally was the London Olympics glow & afterglow which also failed to produce & dictated they could not therefore build sell & run....A shiny new terminal building does not guarantee extensive use perhaps just ask DSA & BOH...Good Luck..SS
