The Mechanic is really starting to become a liability to CDC…..whilst they like to try and use his ignorance to do their dirty work I suspect it won’t be long before his wings are clipped!

Can’t see them listed unless Munich are representing them….https://www.routesonline.com/events/259/routes-europe-2026/attending-delegates/?orgtypeid=1&countryid=86&listorder=atoz#mainContent

There will be a further heap of trouble for this project after next months elections. Barnsley is now tipped to be Reform controlled and Sheffield looks like it will be controlled by the LibDems and Greens. Whatever the outcome of the now May vote expect more significant political challenges...

I see Farrage has been quizzed on DSA…. Essence of his answer is he supports the airport reopening but not with tax payers cash. His argues that the private sector should pick up the tab and commercial risk. I doubt those Councillors from his party will be changing their minds on how to vote...

I’d not be surprised if Munich had walked. This vanity project was already a difficult sell to airlines - since the Middle East crisis it’s now an impossible job! You only have to read today’s news from LH to see the state the industry currently is in…..LH certainly won’t be going anywhere near...

I read it as the procurement process for the FBO concluding at the end of May (assuming of course anyone bothers to bid given the current uncertainties around DSA and the state of the industry at the moment).

And that is essence is the whole hypocrisy of the statements from Coppard etc. He is calling out those who want transparency whilst at the same time the organisation he is in charge of is currently refusing to release funding due to the commercial terms of the lease. A lease agreed to by the...

No idea….he is usually carping about the ACC changes and the rerouting of traffic away from Burley…His website says it all….talk about NIMBYISM!,

Yep - needless to say he is up for election…..He sits on the ACC so you may know off him…..

Comes to something when you get a local Conservative Cllr supporting that group! This was posted today on the Menston community FB group…. LBA CLEUD application number 26/00926/CLE. “I have received about 50 representations today regarding night-time flights, urging me to write to Leeds City...

I see Coppard and Jones have reverted to social media to attack Reform and the Conservatives over DSA….In the case of Coppard he does so whilst failing to acknowledge the fact that that his own administration are currently withholding funding!

CDC out with their begging bowl again…… https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/politics/doncaster-sheffield-airport-government-urged-to-support-rail-link-6557893

It’s meets the definition of a vanity project in every way! It’s time the YP actually did some real journalism and spoke to senior figures in the industry to get the reality of the situation given the amount of public funds being out at risk…. Oh and quoting 130k folks who signed a petition and...

To be honest I pretty much gave up using lounges a while ago even though I’ve a free Dragon pass. Most of the offerings are poor and that’s when you can actually manage to gain access without a wait or paying to pre book. Guess they maybe attractive if you want to drink copious amounts of...

Seems LBA social media team are having a hard time of it on FB with their latest updates on the lounge changes. Seriously though some folks really need to get a grip🤣. Seems whatever changes the airport makes folks just love a moan - this time it seems about children ruining their peace and...
