Southend Airport in itself is a hostage to fortune.
To understand the future is to understand Stobart`s reasoning & business objectives originally.
I think all those scenarios have been well rehearsed here but all now in nearly 2018 possibly indicate misjudgement at the very least,the only get out of jail card being perhaps it was always viewed & expected to be funded as a decades long slog.Somehow I doubt though that was the intention of the project.
This thread goes round in circles...hopes raised..hopes reassessed continually.
SEN`s commerciality is going to be determined within the Stobart boardroom & the personal motives in play there but they are playing in a big boys world & hopefully now not subsumed to a mere vanity project as every competitor around is owned by multi billion pound groupings & are v v good at what they do.
