For anyone who still hasn't seen the walk through video of the Airports new Terminal Extension that is currently been built, its now appeared on Youtube so I can share it on here.

The investment in the North’s transport infrastructure quoted by the Aviation Minister sounds impressive until you realise that London gets twice as much per head than the North. West Yorkshire and Humberside fare even worse. No wonder our road, rail and aviation development is light years behind where it should be.

I think that applies to most areas outside London and its environs.

You’re right but still doesn’t explain why the North West gets almost 3 times per person for transport than Yorkshire and Humberside.

M62 shed:

New airport shed

https://images.app.goo.gl/ggfzBDGVJeqwezYw5

One of my very large M62 sheds has just been purchased by a leading wedding and banquet group which has struggled to get large sized venues with a minimum of 500 car park spaces (this has 750).
I was amazed they wished to open in the middle of a large industrail estate, but they see this as the future, I have visited three of their other similar u.k. sites.
They have 800 plus backdrops for wedding scene photos including every major world site and once your inside the shed your transported to a totally different place and forget the drive to the door. The dinning room can be any style you wish, the walls move, ceiling, lights, backdrop and can be converted to a night club in 30 minutes. The acoustics are I am told by those in the know, second to none and far better then most commercial arena's
There making no changes to the outside, just graphics to be projected on to the exterior walls, no doubt LBA could do this.
It does not matter what the outside looks like, its the interior thats important

It certainly does matter what it looks like from the outside - it’s part of the scenery. We shouldn’t accept mediocre architecture, and more importantly neither should council planning departments.

Luckily, the exterior of the terminal extension isn’t hideous, from the pictures I’ve seen.

I had an email yesterday from Charles Johnson, LBA Head of Development, confirming that the fly through video of the new terminal building is now available to view on the LBA website. Also that he will, or is already, liaising with Forums4Airports with regard to the same version being made available on this site as requested by Aviador.

It's a shame that the production company didn't employ a 'proof reader'.........not very professional when you see the green channel marked 'nothing to DELCARE'!

Along with the reported fly through video a new external image has also appeared on the airports website today.

In respect of the pier construction phase 3, will this extend out eastwards to the far eastern point of the current walkway?

Why do Only Fools and Horses Work, nah nah nah nah nah!

 

[Bigman]

You plonker Rodney...or is it Dave. Also, if we ever get round to Brexiting, what channel would it be for EU passenger?..presumably not blue??

i hope so (but there again it is LBA)

 

[Hendi]

I hope the pier is wide enough and built to a standard where it has abit of seating at each gate, if the plans are to continue expanding the terminal that way though, I'm not so sure that will happen.

New consultation update

 

[Tarn Spotter]

Not sure having the project welcomed by Gary Verity and David Laws a good PR move, especially with the formers activities may becoming a criminal investigation.
Tried to give feedback got the following message "You have Caught us Napping"

I see Leeds/Bradford Airport gained full planning permission approval from Leeds City Council on Monday, May 13th 2019 to knock down one of the existing warehouses and build its new petrol filling station, which will be situated just off Whitehouse Lane.

Is this the Cargo shed everyone has recently been talking about on this forum?
