‘Express’ Parcel Freight EMA arrives/ departs from which Origin Airports? I notice DHL + Charters (Aero Logic?, European Air Transport, Kalitta Air, Atlas Air, ASL Airlines, Star Air?) Aircraft fly in from CVG, JFK, EDI, LHR, BFS, DUB, BAH, LEJ, BRU, CDG, OSL some most weekdays and others...

HS2 is a national infrastructure project and CPO powers are granted via Act of Parliament for safeguarded land and property. DSA is a different case and CPO will need to be legally sought via the courts.

Viability is key to the argument, it is a question that has yet to be answered by any party seeking to see the airport re-open. With the backdrop of Peel who will have a clear counter case as to why the airport was unviable with no path to viability, and I am sure a polished business case for...

For most people it is already inevitable and has been for a long time. The question remains how the Mayor and Doncaster City Council finally play out the debacle, and how much taxpayers money will be wasted in the process.

According to the Yorkshire Post, Peel have issued a statement saying there are no commercial negotiations with any interested buyers ongoing. Quoting the Peel spokesperson: “The Peel Group remains open to all discussions with potential investors and where introductions to interested parties...

I think todays update was more a response to Save DSA Chadwick's self serving “rant” to the press yesterday over lack of updates. I don’t feel the Jones update says anything other than what is already known.

Copy of the letter sent by Doncaster Council to the CAA requesting a 12 month extension to the removal of the DSA airspace/AIP. Nothing new other than the same old arguments: https://airspacechange.caa.co.uk/documents/download/5368

It looks increasingly like the CPO is the last hope for Jones and co. Recent activities including the sale of assets and the fact that the airspace closure consultation process has continued despite claims negotiations were ongoing - some claim it is at due diligence stage which I would have...

Indeed, generally how I interpret it also. DMBC as part of the CPO will need to prove it will be in the public interest. In reality they need to prove there is a viable aviation related business post acquisition. To date they (DMBC or SYMCA) have yet to answer that question. This did not escape...

Judicial review rejected by courts. Not surprisingly. No mention yet regarding the asset injunction request

I'm not from West Yorkshire and don't agree with your assessment of the regional split narrative. The mismanagement tack is just the strap line from the Save DSA group and the local politicians. It fits their narrative, in fact it is pretty much their only narrative. Why did Vantage walk away...

Telegraph reports that talks between Peel and the consortium are stalled.

Fire cover now reduced to Cat 3 with 3 hours notice to be Cat 6 for the OSRL Boeing 727’s.

Indeed, I also read the MoM's. What it did confirm was that DMBC are part of the negotiations. Positively, hopefully it means that the outcome, which ever way it goes should be the final chapter. I would hope this prevents a long drawn out, expensive, complex and taxpayer funded legal affair...

Joint statment with Mayor Oliver Coppard, Oliver Coppard, Nick Fletcher MP, Ed Miliband & Rosie Winterton. “A substantial offer has been submitted by one of the potential buyers that were identified by Doncaster Council and South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority. These potential buyers and...

Doncaster Free Press reporting that Peel have released a statement this afternoon in response to yesterday’s claims. No credible offer and identity of buyer not revealed to them. The plot thickens...

I am also now suspecting it is leaked from DMBC. “Above market value offer”seems to be a natural progression in wordplay from “credible offer”. I imagine the council want to push this as their case should it go to the courts in the next steps. They will want to discredit Peel by claiming they...

Peel will need to show they have followed due process If this ends up going down the CPO route, they will need to demonstrate this with the courts. Likewise DMBC need to do the same hence why they are hanging back on the injunctions and launch of the CPO process. I am not in the Look North...

It’s a difficult one to call. As you say Peel could look at this as away out so it is no longer their problem, assuming the buyers offer what Peel want. Everything is for sale at the right price. It all depends on what above market price actually means in terms of a cash offer on the table. Peel...

Latest NOTAM issued today. No ground handling from 23:59 on the 4th up until the 18th. I presume this will be superseded by the final airfield closure notice probably to be issued a few days before the 18th.
