It seems then that YP have interpreted the Mayor's statement as MIA are operating the airport -have they fallen for more ambiguity?? Read it carefully YP!!) I interpret it as FP airports will be the actual operator - presumably they are the preferred bidder!!

Yes I'm sure MAI are fine - big company. Trying to pick out the structure from what the Mayor is stating (which is always difficult) it would seem that they are being bankrolled to provide consultancy - and being a big company that will not be cheap - through their 'subsidiary' FP Airports...

Don't you start WH - we've enough with one! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Should really be CDC replying to the criticism - but all the defence coming from Mr Chadwick - maybe they will release something shortly - or more likely not!! CDC have perhaps had a bit of bad luck, some flawed advice and a bit of ill judgement which has all contributed to what seems to be a...

I do not think that Mr Chadwick will stop. With the lack of information of any substance coming out from CDC he seems very much to have become the Council spokesperson - whether officially or not.

Yes - he was on one group and although pro-DSA did come up with stuff to make people think. I think he was 'banned' for some reason and moved elsewhere.

You are correct - the media have hold of it - headlines (I think) in this mornings Yorkshire Post. Haven't read what the article said, just saw the headline(?) as I walked past the paper shop in the village. Of course YP is in the pocket of LBA and the report is commissioned by them --- right...

The same Ms Reeves that wrote (letter in public domain) to LCC Planning to register her disapproval of the proposed brand new zero-rated terminal at LBA due to noise and pollution! Lady speaks with forked tongue??? rabbitfoot: You clearly have an insight into development/land etc. - do you...

A point of interest in that report is that the final decision will be taken in the summer. If that is that case (and even if it were tomorrow) then it seems very highly unlikely that the airport can be licensed for CAT by Spring 2026 as promised by the Mayor - or maybe another ambiguous play on...

Don't knock it! Discussing something like this keeps his baying mob away from nearby airports!

Always going to be an issue when peoples expectations are enhanced by over enthusiastic narrative based upon little knowledge which is then taken as 'gospel'. A more realistic and better informed approach would perhaps have been more appropriate. Those who are interested in the cost of...

Opa Locka is near Miami.

Yes indeed you did - remember that.

Makes you wonder whether OC has given CDC an 'ultimatum' (or friendly advice/indicator) as to how much they can spend on the deal if SYCMA are to approve it and the current (or recent) state of play did not meet the target - hence the delays - but who knows? The original Council vision of 2...

Agree - very rare indeed for fog with any westerly bias to the wind - let alone the 270/08 kts that has been recorded.

Landed!

As 2XL have been present in hangar 3 since closure of DSA and before any lease agreement between themselves and the Council could have been possible, one might assume that they have been paying for the lease of the hangar directly to Peel during that period. Be interesting to know if there is a...

I'm assuming that there will not be any kind of commercial movements (freight or pax.) until the airfield is awarded an operating license. That in itself is going to take some time with the recruitment and training required and stuff outside the operators control such as delays in accreditations...

If the advice of SAU is not to be available until the 22nd Jan and the FBC is to be presented on 25th Jan where is the time for public scrutiny? Smacks of a fait accompli - the electorate will possibly not get to know the cost to them of all this until it's too late! Some will not be bothered so...

Yes of course. Unfounded nonsense!!
