As per my post above, as of mid December, both Lounges are to be located at the Eastern end of the new extension.

As its glazed on 2 sides, it must be the Eastern end of the building, which is the location for both of the new lounges. So I suspect what the photo shows is the area they occupy, minus the dividing partition between them.
Am I correct in thinking works on the new stands are due to commence this month?

I think February was the month quoted.

Correct. That's what they said in December.
Where are the 2 new stands to be located and when aircraft are parked on the stands what direction will they face?
The airside frontage of the terminal extension looks great, the use of 2 different colours of grey with the dark grey representing each gate, together with the long length window gives a clean modern look but without been dull. Also great for plane spotters and the public! would be even better though minus that bloody bus shelter which clearly ruins the overall impression atm!

Speaking of which, the bus shelter is currently being dismantled behind the new (temporary) walkway. Now that the road layout has changed with a one-way system in place, the new walkway can be extended and the old can be fully removed

Bottom of the taxiway from apron up to the runway (Delta?). No idea which way the aircraft will be pointing though.
So im guessing one or more of the grassed areas is to be removed? I guess eventually all the grassed areas could be removed between the apron and the old shorter runway, some aircraft could park in that area facing outwards towards the main runway but obviously only to a certain point to avoid ils issues, this area would be a little closer to the terminal as well rather than parking all the way down at the far eastern end

Yes, that's my understanding. Pretty sure all the additional stands are on areas that are currently grass between the apron and taxiway (old runway 28) or alongside taxiway delta.
Once all those grassed areas are removed it should create a vast amount of extra space and apron width!

New lounge announced, attention to detail is once again lacking : 'From June 2024' , LOL. It does look very nice through the CGI images though.

Thats a really obvious mistake.
What is wrong with these people who continue to produce erroneous comms?? It really isn't creating a good impression.

I have emailed my contact on LBA management.so hopefully they will see the error of their ways and amend it. Someone in their marketing team needs to sharpen up though..
