thank god you will never be an accountant Ant!! - its a rolling figure, based on the last 12 months, so if the airport keeps increasing its passenger numbers, the figure will just keep going up and up, no one on here will know when it will hit 15 million, could be 2027, 2028, 2029, depends how...
maybe a very light passenger load on the Ryanair Max? - I often see the Maersk Air Cargo B767 taking off from Birmingham half way down the runway when its empty, and being airbourne with at least a quarter of the runway left!! - its performance and climb are amazing when its empty!
