    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    Not a peep from the Council but the campaign page has pre-empted folk discovering no DSA offer from TUI 2028 and complaining, by kicking the can down the road and explaining that because no flights are announced now it doesn't mean to say there will not be any! Reasons for that in terms of...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    TUI Summer 2028 programme is released today. As forecast there is no offer from DSA. I noticed that they had an old 'Orion' scanner at security - will this also need to be replaced to the new specification with additional heavy cost and delays or would they be able to re-open with some sort of...

    Leeds Bradford: New Route Development & Rumours

    Perhaps we should understand better why they act in this way - or maybe we already do. Some are die-hard socialists who believe politically in the fact that the Council are 'buying' jobs, the majority simply want to fly locally - which is fair enough although somewhat selfish in these...

    Leeds Bradford: Aurigny Air Services Flights, New Routes & Schedule Updates

    I am sure your assessment is correct. Aurigny ditched Stansted a while ago and EMA before they even started there. The losses are significant and I guess that they are trying hard to save money. Consolidating on Manchester probably takes care of the North of England and ensures (?) a decent load...

    Leeds Bradford: EasyJet Flights, New Routes & Schedule Updates

    It will be interesting to see what the figures are from Aberdeen when they start up. The flight timings seem similar to LBA with a very late arrival into BCN on one day. However, there is no competition.

    Leeds Bradford: Airport Application To Amend Night Flying Quota Methodology

    I was lucky as the registration and validation took very little time at all.

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    Flew over today just south of the 02 threshold - didn't see any approach lights. Over the fence from the runway end there are significant quarrying operations which seem to be almost impinging upon the runway centreline. That massive speculative build Panattoni warehouse appeared deserted so it...

    A new airport.... South Yorkshire Airport City?

    I will have a look at the proposed airspace volume reduction when I have some uninterrupted time and hopefully log on to the aviators on-line briefing and stick my two penneth into the Aviation side of the consultation in due course. However, with a forecast 3 arrivals and 3 departures in 2028 I...

    Leeds Bradford: Wizz Air Flights, New Routes & Schedule Updates

    They will not struggle with routes from LBA to any of their destinations - but with the CFM engine J2 will be CAT1 only (at this moment in time) as the landing characteristics are apparently different to P&W. (I had this first hand) I recall a discussion a while ago about this aspect. Whether or...

    Leeds Bradford: Wizz Air Flights, New Routes & Schedule Updates

    Sounds like ops. told them to stop messing about and get it on the ground!!! 2000m with a 200ft overcast and wind down the slot is certainly not 'impossible'!

    Leeds Bradford: Wizz Air Flights, New Routes & Schedule Updates

    Didn't watch it but in spite of the bluster and 'we'll show them' attitude I noticed that on the campaign sites that no one had their DSA related questions accepted. I think it came as a shock that the programme, as you say, is only interested in National issues.
