The thing that gets me is the deliberate moves to eradicate aviation business, traffic, which is fundamental to running a successful airport; you need aircraft, pilots, engineers a good coffee shop and all the associated paraphernalia. Look at Wilton, like Topsy, hangers being built, aircraft etc. etc. Now if I owned an airport, I’d want those operations at my aerodrome, not half way to Wollongong.
However, if you were in the development game, you would want shut of the pesky aircraft and attendant hoop-la; so revenue from ‘traffic’ must be discouraged, leases must be a high court matter and the leaseholders just so many moving targets. What’s next, speed bumps on the few taxiways which an aircraft may use, if it can gain access.
Not too many prizes for guessing the direction BAL intend to take. The terminal and the toilets speak volumes. Never been in a good pub or restaurant that had bad, filthy facilities, customers just wont wear it and yet the lambs at BK just let their airport and terminal get worse by day. A for apathy.
