Teesside-2
The Gulf Wars and Bosnia boosted the airport figures when they were on and don't forget Teesside is the nearest civil airport to Europe's largest army barracks.
In the days of the British army in Germany there used to be a weekly summer families Viscount aircraft flight to Munster.

Quite a bit of new stuff in here, in particuar the massive new apron east of the current cargo facility (which is mislabelled on the display), and the terminal extension. Train station seems to disappear?
I'd also question the comments "Unique airside access" (my understanding is this isn't a given on the southside, but will be demand led) and the "central location for national and global connectivity" - though it is nice to have global connectiivty back in the conversation, it's been a while

Its different from any other plans even the ones a few weeks ago that showed the two new 727/757 hangars. The eastern parking apron would be most welcome at the moment.
As the Freeport funding and sell off details, reach fever pitch!! no doubt questions will be asked about the funding for this too?
Will it come from airport profits or TVDC or government or private?
Very impressive though!

More trouble brewing for the Mayor though. He’s said the Labour MP for Middlesbrough lied in Parliament and went on to say Private Eye published lies.
The problem is, Private Eye responded with the proof.

I would think movements and how busy airfields are with movements also has an impact on punctuality!

no one said under what criteria!
"New figures from the Civil Aviation Authority revealed 2022 was the busiest year for more than a decade at Teesside, welcoming more than 173,000 passengers through its terminal – up more than 200% on the previous year. At the height of the summer season in July, it was named the most punctual, with delays of just 11 minutes and nearly half of all flights taking off early."
....... then you are comparing aircraft movements In February 2023 against punctuality in July 2022.

You all seem to miss I was challenging this post..... and yes punctuality can be effected by Falcons departing or recovering. What's the excuse for those airports I quoted for not being more punctual when they have less movements?

I haven't seen this proof with my own eyes but the Mayor is continuing to defend himself defiantly, praising both the Yorkshire Post and Teesside Gazette for "reporting the facts"
Yorkshire post fighting back🤔
Great plans ahead!
Still not sure where the cash will come from though? Wonder if we will go through all those funding doubts again?
