Would I be correct in assuming that the move to Kalitta Air on LEJ-EMA-LAX is a consequence of Brexit, insofar as it is no longer permissible for a German carrier to carry revenue earning cargo on the UK/USA sector?

Good work for CargoLogicAir/CLU...is a school of thought that a UK based/G-Dash registered B744F operator with now no reliance on work out of the EU to the Worldwide market would also fail to find work out of the UK after 1.1.21

The cargo figure just underlines what I have written previously regarding the "unsung hero" for EMA. Passengers may be just 7.3% of last December but the revenue from cargo must be compensating, if not more than compensating, for the lost revenue from PAX. Is there is business case for investing more in cargo and letting passengers wither on the vine?
It perhaps goes some way to explain why the passenger facilities are relatively dire at EMA - invest where you know you can make money.

And now they have snow those raised bases in the centre of the roads that are missing their keep left signage are now flush with snow and hidden, just waiting to rip someones sump out or cause injury at which point I do hope the unfortunate sues them.

It may just be sloppy journalism, but if the "East Midlands Airport Police" are a different entity to Leicestershire Constabulary one wonders what jurisdiction they have to issue fines to people on public roads outside the airport boundary. Moreover, there is a public footpath that runs roughly around the perimeter of EMA which is open as normal, so although it's probably more than a bit fool hardy to sit in your car at one of the vantage points around the perimeter, I really wouldn't have thought that driving from West Bridgford to walk the footpath wouldn't necessarily contravene the (thoroughly ambiguous) rules. I mean, what is "local area"? The characters who travelled from Mansfield are certainly on rather more dodgy ground!
It is rather galling that the police are more than happy to fine "low hanging fruit" but quite happy to turn a blind eye to the groups of youth and young adults that are regularly seen congregating outside corner shops, sans face coverings, and making no attempt at social distancing.
I would add that I haven't ventured anywhere near EMA since the latest lockdown began, nor for that matter, during either of the two previous lockdowns.

Well the potholes have now got their own potholes, come the first sniff of ice the roads start self gritting as the surface breaks down, but I wouldn’t expect it to improve anytime soon, the Airport headquarters building has a bloody great hole in one end through the outer wall and I’m talking feet wise, it’s falling apart, which doesn’t exactly hint at any spending anytime soon.

Does anyone know what the status is with the new UPS facility? I have heard it is due to open soon but not sure when. Is there any idea what sort of changes may happen to the UPS route network from EMA maybe we will see routes from Louisville? one of the new stands is marked for a 747 so will we maybe see some UPS aircraft other than the 767s?

think the open date is now expected to be April, and I’ve also heard rumours about flights from STN being moved up to EMA including some 747 traffic but I’m guessing time will tell
