    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    I’m I see the mechanic has once again spun it as a positive and noted mention of his own Facebook group as part of the feedback, as if that matters. Comments regarding local ‘insignificant puddle jumpers upset because their airspace might be taken away’ displays a gross misunderstanding of...

    S106 in this case is the apparent planning cap on the number of cargo flights permitted in effectively measured in tonnage from what I understand. The documents also mention 2mppa by Y10, I can’t find the reference to 1.17mppa.

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    Well whilst he’s busy doing that, it made me realise there may have been an ACP update. Obviously someone at DSA has told the mechanic as lo and behold there has been a number of updates… Leads me to think this good ‘news’ about ICAO confirming EGCN will be recognised as…. EGCN is perhaps to...

    Seems that’s gone to MME instead, how long that lasts remains to be seen though. I’ve always been of the belief that if there really was an inner demand it would be easyjet who would be able to carve out a market by serving it. They have very little presence between Luton and Newcastle up the...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    That won’t matter at this stage, I still think they’re keen on easyjet so wouldn’t be surprised if there’s something in that, but otherwise the project director is on record saying he’s looking at markets in China UAE and ‘Kazerbaijan’. I’m pretty sure of those markets that do exist, they’re not...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    That will be years down the line, they’ve already said it will lose £81million over a number of years and people have accepted this as just the cost of doing business. Regurge aren’t going to do anything to pull the plug, they’re just a show piece. Any genuine questions as to the true viability...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    The spate of recruitment adverts wasn’t just a coincidence. They’re throwing enough at it to make it too big to fail/for the plug to be pulled. It would take some extreme measures to stop it now assuming the SYMCA CFO ends up signing it off. But this is why they’re doing all this, to make it too...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    Ros Jones has issued another statement on her Faceache tonight. I assume we’ll be seeing a local business caller ‘Donny Airways’ being announced soon to operate from DSA Anyway it seems this has been announced to distract from the apparent ‘chaos’ at the ECM on Friday...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    It’s to create a point of no return, but also to show the CAA that they’re serious. I note that Regurge sent a couple of their people over to Peel HQ in Salford last week to discuss the lease, they appear to have done this without the cooperation of the Cabal. Not sure how that might have gone...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    Expect this afternoon Ros Jones and the execs will be pulling out all the stops to ensure their processes are water tight from a political POV so as to prevent any growing dissent within the elected council from being able to influence any change. It all seems to be laid out in the agenda what...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    I’ve a feeling that if what @Egyptian King is saying is correct, then this will be politically motivated - I.e ‘we’re providing unrivalled opportunities for the long term unemployed to learn a highly technical skill, if you stop us from reopening you are preventing people having these...

    If that is the case I’d like to see how that goes down with the regulator!

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    A few of them were under what I understand to be the misapprehension that Peel had done a dirty on the place. Putting myself in their shoes it’s understandable to feel that way when the rug is pulled, by many accounts it was a good place to work (which alone doesn’t scream mismanagement!) and...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    Presumably working for one of the other local airports, some are commenting on Ros Jones Facebook post and it has also been confirmed by @radar who is in a position to know this stuff. Whether we agree with the airport being a success or not, they clearly want to go back to the place they...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    They’re taking people transitioning from the military who will need thousands investing in training and certification to civilian standards. Could speculate as to why they’ve decided to do this, but it’s a bizarre choice when they have experienced people on their doorstep who are keen to return...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    I know, but I think this is purely another ‘Chuck a bucket of good news at the fire’ exercise. Why would you invite a bloke who’s used questionable tactics at times to push for a reopened airport at any cost when the airport hasn’t even reopened yet? Meanwhile I see Ros Jones has hailed the...

    It’s not a GE, it’s an Extraordinary Full Council on Friday which is why we’ve seen a wall of ‘positivity’ in the last week. They’re effectively trying to strong arm public opinion to make any dissenting voices get back in line. This is part of it, If they decide to refer to audit then it...

    Because I accidentally referred to him as ‘the mechanic’. Force of habit. Anyhow, all I asked it to do was review ‘the mechanics’ post and pasted it in. That was tbe output.

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    I put his AI generated post into another AI system and this is what it said: That post from "the mechanic" is a masterpiece of misleading terminology. He is using comforting business words like "profit-share" and "success" to mask a legal reality that is much more predatory for the taxpayer...
