DURHAM TEES VALLEY AIRPORT - 6

[Beafer]

17,000 tonnes of rubbish planned for Hangar 5 site.

Any news from the councils about the private company Norwaste Group Ltd plans to put a refuse station next to the taxi-way on the old Hangar 5 site?

17,000 tonnes of rubbish a year were planned

Beafer, think you need to go see a shrink, this obsession is going to get you nowhere, asking on here gets you nowhere. Typing for hours investigating, gets you nowhere!

[Robert-Ryan]

During last weekends debacle on here I often started to feel like some of my points were wrong, and sure enough I do think I need to reconsider some of my views, but Beafer, N707ZS is bang on the money - you're loony.

I still don't think Peel are/have a need to run the airport into the ground and as far as I'm concerned (and I appreciate I cannot expect everyone to share this view) they can have my public money, and I'm glad they got the airport for nowt because they've kept it open longer than literally any other entity would have done.

Well I don't think beefer is a so called "looney".... 'he does somthing called research'....perhaps RR and N707ZS should do it before coming on here with your criticism of the guy...
RR... Have you seen any contracts when peel were given the place from the council's by any chance???
I take not... maybe theirs a clause in the contract that's says peel can't shut it for a certain number of years..

[N707ZS]

Beafer probably has a thousand useful points but what use is it just ranting on here?

[Robert-Ryan]

Bishop, I do research and there is a world of difference between research and the obsessive dirt digging Beafer does. At the end of the day the history of this thread proves more people share our views towards Beafer than not.

Perhaps there is a clause though...you may well be right

Durham Tees Valley / Teesside Airport Map

Good Day All,

Does anyone happen to know where I could get a terminal layout map of the almost none-existent Durham Tees Valley Airport? New or old....

Searching everywhere without success....

[aviation88]

Does anyone know where I could get a terminal layout map for DTVA?

Friends of DTVA might be able to help you, address on their web site.

All very quiet (though one of the stored Middle East Jets departed today) - so some light relief from the Gazette...

The station was used 98 times in 2015-2016, by far the lowest in the region.
But that figure is four times higher than the number of people who used it the previous year, when 32 people got on or off the train at the airport.

Can you guess how busy Teesside Airport station has been? It's booming, relatively speaking - Gazette Live

[N707ZS]

It been buzzing with bizz jets and DA 20s all day!

[Bishop01]

I see October 2016 passenger figures out...
another drop (-14) 12,143 Oct 2015 down to 10,476 Oct 2016
do we know how 2016 is going regarding passenger figures?? or do I need to ask??

[highwideandugly]

Don't ask,you will get shot down!!

[Robert-Ryan]

Are the CAA publishing figures again?

[INKJET]

Hey remember the Halcyon days of bmibaby...DTV could do it again, no landing fee's or nav charges, so long as you carry 170 people on every flight in/out, yes it would cost the council a fortune, but it would put the area back on the map and shopping/car parking and employment would go through the roof.

[Robert-Ryan]

Prospective new airlines already get fees waivered as an incentive

[10 DME ARC]

Hey remember the Halcyon days of bmibaby...

Really.......from wiki;

Insufficient passenger numbers led to the closure of the Durham Tees Valley base in 2006,

[N707ZS]

Interesting watching 9 DA 20s return today must be busy with someone out in the North sea.

[Robert-Ryan]

Since when does anyone believe Wikipedia, there may have been an issue with yield but there was no shortage of passengers

[SWBKCB]

Insufficient passenger numbers

there may have been an issue with yield but there was no shortage of passengers

This is getting silly now - so what is a sufficient number of passengers? Maybe it means insufficient number of passengers to make a profit?

bmiBaby didn't leave because they were making so much money they couldn't find enough wheelbarrows to take it to the bank.
