Now, maybe I'm missing something here, but wouldn't it cause a problem at T1 if they knocked down C pier? There are only 4 other T1 stands with air bridges . . . and taking away all those on C would cause flying from T1 a bit of a bother, would it not? I think that they should extend T2 northward, and bend it to go on the northern part of the apron (near 251) and not bother with the southern part of the T2 pier, not needing to touch T1 in any way (I'm partial to T1, as you can see!)

Sorry to sound a bit sarcastic, but having recently transferred to MAN from LHR, could someone tell me if the airport really was designed and built by Fischer Price?
The Terminals seem to numbered in the order of 3 , 1, then 2 , anyone over 6,1" has to duck when entering Terminal 2 from the funny tube thing (this is not normally a problem as I'm nackered after the long walk with the many unserviceable walky bits), the staff west car park is somewhere near Warrington, the staff bus takes me to the wrong place!, and the second runway seems to be there for decoration purposes only.
Maybe its just me, but having been based at a few european airfields, its hardly 21st century flying is it chaps!!!!!

T3 was built?!? - I thought it was merely a part of T1 renamed to differentiate between the domestic and international stuff (although don't Emirates and AA use T3 too...???)
Was a bit weird when T2 opened, just about the same time Arnie was doing his T2!!

Anti Skid On . . . you are partly right.
T3's Pier A has always been there (as T1's pier A). When they decided on T3, they built a new 45 degree angle pier (gates 50 - 55), built a bit of building in between it and pier A, and then incorperated all of that into T3.
Togamax, do you read right-to-left? I believe the order would be T2, T1, T3? Something like that? Anyway . . . only 6ft clearance? I am over 6ft in height and never had that problem!

NOBODY IS ANSWERING MY QUESTION!!! How are they going to get T1 together with 3 stands with airbridges?
Why don't they just pave the grass south of papa to alleviate congestion between the Terminals . . . I think the demolition of C is a huge mistake on Manchester's part . . . does anyone agree?
Please answer!

I refer to my post on this thread from ages ago that it is only the satellite at the end of Pier C which will be totally demolished.
I haven't seen any plans suggesting otherwise, and as such, I stand by my original post

Ahh, I see 160to4DME . . . Well I would hope you mare right! I was acutally reffering to what Go-go Juice said,
"To make room for this new satellite and to ease congestion Charlie pier will be demolished and Bravo pier realigned. It is rumoured that the satellites will be connected to both terminals."
I don't know where everybody hears these rumors, but who has the truth?

Thought I'd bring this old favorite back to the top!
As it is almost a year since this topic was added to, I just wanted to ask if there are any more developments or confirmations on any of the issues covered in the thread.
