    Manchester Airport - General Thread

    I thought that Dublin Aerospace had tried to acquire this facility? Have I got confused with the old BA hangar which I believe is going to be knocked down and converted into some sort of facility for THG, anybody have any ideas on this?

    Manchester Airport - NOTAMS/OANS

    Manchester Airport Transformation Programme

    A question for you guys regarding the travelators, why did they never install the fabulous rubber travelators like Gatwick south terminal have/had? (It has been a while since I used them, not sure they are still in use!) I remember them being the most smooth and comfortable travelators.
