Can't we keep the conversation on topic?
Will this money pit ever run dry?
Social media starting to wind its self up over Teesworks and its financial concerns again. I’m sure the airport will be mentioned amid the same financial concerns!

With respect, what has this got to do with "Rumoured airlines and routes from/to Teesside". If we're not careful, this thread is going to turn completely into a political side swipe forum akin to the Evening Gazette comments. I can read all the anti-Houchen stuff there!

Which would be a shame. Back in the 'good old days' of Torrington on Yarm Road I used St George's Hotel prior and post MME-AMS trips so felt a little 'connected' still.

The boundary between political news and only aviation news becomes blurred when the mayors declining reputation and his difficulties with the truth starts impacting on the airport in the same way that it has with the Freeport.
On a more positive note, it looks like the new aircraft painting contract in the two new hangers is eventually going ahead.

KLM Cityhopper have 48 190’s/195’s versus just 17 170’s. I believe the plan is for 7 of the 170’s to be retired as the new E2’s come in. So you’ll be seeing more and more of the larger variants
Rumour is it’s another renaming of the airport..from April the First it will become known as LBHIA…
Lord Ben Houchen International Airport…
Changing all the road signs is causing the delay…

Thanks - haven't got accerss to that. Good news to have a well established operator in the new hangars - was it Airborne that were in hangar one years ago? Wonder if there will be any impact on Willis's paintshop plans, or will it be mutually beneficial?
A Teessider who founded a world-leading aircraft painting firm is returning to his roots by setting up a new base at Teesside International Airport.
Steve Darbyshire is the founder and Chief Executive of Airbourne Colours – a world-leading company which paints aircraft from around the globe.
Now the 49-year-old’s company has been confirmed as the tenant for a major new hangar under construction at Teesside Airport – with 40 new jobs in the offing

Is this the company that was going to go into the Willis village paint shop? And are they to have both of the new hangars near the station? The Willis hangar the plans restricted working after 11.00pm until 6.00am.
It must be a bonus being a new build hopefully constructed as a paint shop and not a modified hangar.
Thanks for that! There's only one hangar mentioned in the press release. Similarly there is no mention of Willis, so would assume it is seperate (and the Willis paintshop was in one of their later phases).
The new hangar 4 won't be in such close proximity to housing, so may not have the same conditions.
