Leeds Bradford: General Airport Discussion & Updates

[Aviador]

That's weird. It's just not there for me. Ah well. Hopefully it will re-appear for me when it's ready.

There are no thread specific viewing restrictions on the KLM thread. If you honestly can't view the thread I have no explanation. What is always worth a try is to clear your browser cookies. It works for most website anomalies.

Have you tried clicking the link in my original post above?

Yes, and I can open the KLM thread that way, or by doing a search, but it still doesn't appear on my list of threads. However - at the bottom of the list,.it says 'show ignored content', and if I click that,.the KLM thread re-appears. Trouble is, next time I open the forum,.it's gone again. I haven't ignored anything, clicked on nothing either, and can't find any reason for that one thread disappearing just for me. I have even liked the last post on there, which isn't ignoring the thread, but it's still absent.

Sorted it. No idea how, but the entire thread was being ignored, and I found how to un-ignore it. Success. Yay! Brilliant.

Thank goodness KLM don't ignore LBA! In fact very much the opposite I would suggest

 

[ls27]

Well done WH

 

[Len Fish]

All round to White Heather’s for the exorcism, don’t want it happening again!

Armed Forces Day 2023

For those who fancy a trip to the coast and want to see some action in the sky I would recommend the National Armed Forces Day event at Scarborough which the year is on Saturday 24 June. The timings of these event have also been published and I will update this post when I find them again but for info the Red Arrows are scheduled for 1pm as they were last year.
Apologies: Initial date posted was 25 June.

24 June is correct date.

Copied to the Avgeek forum. It's not just people from Leeds who will be interested.

CORRECTION TO ARMED FORCED DAY POST.

Through no fault of my own the info about the programme for this Saturday's aerial activities at the Armed Forces Day were incorrect. When I said I would post again when I found the details that was my intention. I didn't find them as they had been removed because they were last year's details. My apologies to everyone.

Here is a link to the programme for the day this year,which after checking, I vouch is correct (but subject to change as always), but not as exciting in my view. It is still a day out however, https://www.scarborougharmedforcesday.co.uk/programme/

I felt this was relevant to LBA given all the recrnt discussions regarding night time ops.

KLM outlines three-pronged plan to reduce night-time noise levels – Business Traveller

The group says its plans “will lead to a stronger decline in noise” than the reduction in flight numbers proposed by the Dutch government…

Following me contacting LBA in respect of advertising improved facilities, I have today received the following response;

You are correct that we are due to start terminal enhancements over the coming months. We will ensure this is communicated to passengers once the designs have been approved and work has started. As with any major project like this, we of course want everyone to know that we will be enhancing the Airport, but we have to ensure everything is finalised before we communicate this.

Given the plans are in the public domain its strange they are reluctant.

They don't know themselves....but no doubt WH will have all the answers that the people at LBA can't answer.

Are the plans in the public domain ? can you post a link ?

 

[White Heather]

They aren't.

Seriously?
If you're descending to that level then perhaps I should keep the information to myself. I'm not wasting my time writing up information from the meetings to be the subject of your sarcasm.

 

[Len Fish]

WH-99.9% if us look forward to your detailed reports that give us a valuable insight into LBA we wouldn’t otherwise get so please don’t be put off contributing by the unappreciative 0.1%.

 

[deepdale2]

I fully support what Len has stated in his latest posting. WH please carry on with your excellent reporting which is much appreciated.

 

[Finger66]

Absolutely WH. Your posts are invaluable

 

[LBAYORKIE]

They aren't.

I thought his comment was meant to mean you are insightful.

I think you should redact the above comment and appologie to White Heather @BCFC as it is potentially breaking the forum rules.

To further answer the question. The airport has basic images from the original planning application they could use prior to them agreeing on specific internal renders or design as mentioned. The basics of the building could be advertised. It looks like when they do show the public, they intend to show them more high quality CGI renders similar to the ones shown for check-in hall A.

 

[YorkshireLad]

I feel like people on the forum are becoming a bit hot-headed lately. I think it’s best we all calm down.

Heather, as the majority of the people on the forum will say, your posts are indeed invaluable and it would be a huge shame if you stopped reporting on the meetings. Remember, the majority of people on here enjoy your posts

BCFC, please be more sensitive when posting, WH puts a lot of effort into the reports and it is easy to see how comments like that can upset her

I understand that we are sick to death of the status quo, it’s been like this since years before I even knew this forum existed, but real change is about to happen, we must all be patient

I thought his comment was meant to mean you are insightful.

It’s a sarcastic comment implying that WH knows more than the airport (at least I think it is, I’m not great with this stuff)
