QueNigel - Yes, you said that already - but I know you're reading my posts - too good to resist ;)

mastey - his grasp of the sector is a little limited.

[nigelpm] 22/10/2016 18:54

I can't read your nonsense SNF - you're blocked.

[suffersnofools] 22/10/2016 18:48

First time for everything QueNigel ;)

[nigelpm] 22/10/2016 18:44

Don't need to - I know I'm right.

[mastey] 22/10/2016 18:42

Sorry dont have the energy to continue explaining this to you. Believe what you wish

[nigelpm] 22/10/2016 18:36

That list is factually incorrect FWIW.

Lots of factors in minimum required runway length - that's looking at very conservative margins.

There are plenty of EU runways out in the Greek Islands etc.. for example that can do A320's and A321 's.

[mastey] 22/10/2016 18:27

See there passenger no increase plans.

See runway requirements for A320/1 and the new 737-800

[nigelpm] 22/10/2016 17:23

I get all that. I know it well. 1,856m is plenty!

Point is if they can handle 757's they'll also do all the A319/A320, 737's.

see : hxxp://www.pprune.org/questions/89578-a320-required-runway-length.html


Besides they only recently extended the runway at Southend in 2012.

Runway extensions are an expensive business.

There's no way you could make a sensible business case for one at an airport with 900k pax!

[mastey] 22/10/2016 17:16

Need to understand things a little bit more I'm afraid. Firstly who uses 757 now.!! Old fuel thirsty aircraft. It's all about pay loan . A number of airports can handle 737 and A321 etc but they cannot take off with full pay loads. Having stobart there needs good cargo opportunities as well.

Re Heathrow have you seen the stats being listed re travel demands ? Clear not, of course Heathrow needs a new runway.

[nigelpm] 22/10/2016 16:48

Interesting was chatting to someone re Southend airport today. Advised that Easyjet flights from there becoming popular. Discussions ongoing to extend the runway.

The runway can already handle 757's!

They'd be able to fly right across Europe.

I can't see any point in them extending the runway - sounds extremely fanciful.

The point about regional airports is a good one though - the amount of traffic from the regions to London Airports could negate the need for a third runway at Heathrow.

Guys some brilliant news:Falling pound fails to dent appetite for foreign travel, sales figures suggesthttp://a.msn.com/r/2/AAjfe42 Buys in Euro are up, better than the dollar, showing people are still travelling to europe, hence why EZJ posted passenger number increases. This is a positive sign short and long term. This share price will continue north for sure, there will be some bumps of course but it's going well!!

I agree suffersnofools,the UKs mental health hospitals aren't what they used to be. Andy should never be let out of his padded cell!

[suffersnofools] 21/10/2016 14:10

Andy - lol - not sure you should be allowed out by yourself :)

[andy pipkin] 21/10/2016 13:45

If you reduce your flights from 4 a day to 3 a day, it will look busy. Simples.

[mastey] 21/10/2016 11:03

Pleased you are reading my posts re Southend. At Faro airport at present , full to the brim , as busy as when here in August. People are flying. Another thought re Brexit. Will it mean that real duty free will return as traveling out of the EU? If so nice little bonus to easy as new revenue stream . 200 cigs cost about 7 pounds duty free. Airlines sell duty free at 38 ish. Work it out.

[andy pipkin] 21/10/2016 10:26

Looks like the journey from 7.5 to 11 is beginning, despite EZJ flying from Southend.

We're at 7.5./////// That's funny Andy,I thought that you were only 6.5 years old.

[dr_smith] 20/10/2016 21:38

suffersnofools: Yep, you are right. Times have changed, skis were free years ago - and I used to have 2 trips per season. I also have blades which fit diaganolly in suitcase - millimetre perfect and still free. It means on arrival I can get straight out, not join a long queue at hire shop - where English get secondary service .. I will shut up, getting very off topic ;-)

[suffersnofools] 20/10/2016 21:13

I hire ski's for that reason. Costs only £30 more per trip than the cost of putting them on the plane, you don't have all the agro, and you can hire that seasons latest ski's freshly waxed to perfection! Only 10 weeks to first ski trip of year :)

[dr_smith] 20/10/2016 19:40

suffersnofools: I am not a chartist, but yours is the best I have seen. ;-)
Mastey/Golf: As a skier, typically on charter plane, it annoys me paying extra for skis and it is not aggregated with other baggage. It comes over like a sucker tax.
I accept the concept, but resent the way it is implemented.

[mastey] 20/10/2016 18:54

Good on you , very pleased you have a target . Unfortunately not a target you are going to see I'm afraid. Interesting was chatting to someone re Southend airport today. Advised that Easyjet flights from there becoming popular. Discussions ongoing to extend the runway. More positive news. Told me when flying to Faro the hold just packed with golf clubs . More postive news for revenue per passenger as the old golf clubs pay just as much as the passenger to fly. Clever of Easy increasing regional airport exposure to destinations that brings bigger hold revenue.

[andy pipkin] 20/10/2016 18:13

We're at 7.5.

[mastey] 20/10/2016 18:03

Great chart. QP is very quiet again. Good consolidation day. Expect it will hover around 9.25-48 for a little while until next push higher, unless of course we see some nice fx moves, however sterling looks a little range bound.
