Master pan
Peel have gone very quiet about the main part of the Master Plan (building houses). I haven't heard from Peels Robert spokesman for a while?
In light of the poor DTV financial accounts shown above and reducing pax numbers each year, can DTV Movements or Cautious Optimiser explain Who or what is going to fund the airport rebuilding etc without any money in the bank or houses being built?
Just curious.

Beefer - remind me what Peel's main business is? If money is needed to earn a penny, sure it'll be found from somewhere else in the group.
One reason for not getting too excited by the accounts is it's relatively easy to shunt profit/debt around between different companies in the same group - look what happened at Blackpool!

Who is Peel Holdings? Some years ago the Indi ran a story "The biggest company you have never heard of" The biggest company you've never heard of: Lifting the lid on Peel Group - the property firm owned by reclusive tax exile John Whittaker - Home News - UK - The Independent
Fantastic news for DTV!!
at last something to shout about!! The future looks bright at last with a new airline and destinations the Teesside public really want and will support!
This could be the start of something big and give the North East an airport to be proud of.
Yes..ok...nurse,I'm coming......

Quality outfit there, must say. Often with these pipe dream startups you find sketchy and flawed business plans, dodgy or unfinished websites with poor graphics, bad spelling, awkward grammar and an uncomfortable urge to convey a sense of professionalism which it is inevitably and tragically lacking... But no I found none of that. See you on the first flight to Blackpool 
Wonder if they'll serve MME-NCL on account of the poor train service? Gotta be good for 10/20 people a week

Its nearly 2 years since Peel made this announcement and plan. What do Peel think of their plan since then?

Skipness One Echo what do you mean "Go on........"? If you want me to elaborate all I can suggest is having on-site engineering is a massive attraction for potential operators of all kinds.

As in a man in van to cover engineering for the existing operation or an attempt to do third party maintenance with perhaps a hangar like they do at Norwich?
Engineering cover is not a "massive attraction" it's an essential! If they're bringing it in house, who used to do it?

Would someone be able to point me to a source which mentions KLM opening something connected with engineering at DTVA ? Google doesn't have anything on this and (like Skipness), I'd like to understand better what exactly has opened
KLM Expansion
According to sources KLM Have moved their engineering base from Newcastle to DTV.. great news as any inward business must be good!!
Hopefully this is a sign of increased KLM activity and flights and sits in nicely with the master plan,which seems slowly but surely as being successful!!

Thank you highwideandugly! Why people can't just accept good news is beyond me.
I do not know if it's man in a van or something more exotic, I've not heard of any previous company leaving so I assume it's in addition to what was in place prior. As for press, it may not have been announced yet, after all, Sycamore were on site for well over a year before they got announced, but it started last Tuesday so it cannot be dismissed as rumour!!

KLM had an engineering base at NCL??? Learn something new everyday
But NCL sees Boeings and Embraers and no Fokkers, whereas MME sees Fokkers and no Boeings and Embraers...
