By the fire station,not too far from the old Viewing Park

They aren’t gonna move it to this area are they?:…
By: TRIDENT MAN - 20th May 2005 at 22:05
Anyway ill have more definate details on ZK Monday,its not a forgone conclusion just yet.

ROFLMAO,indeed Grey 🙂

Ah….. the legendary roaming low cost carrier terminal, eh? 😉
Anyway, isn’t MAN’s low cost carrier terminal at the far end of the M56? :diablo:
By: TRIDENT MAN - 20th May 2005 at 21:44
Plans are for the AVP to be a parking apron or a car park,there are also rumors the site will be used as a low cost carrier terminal.
By: TRIDENT MAN - 20th May 2005 at 21:40
Trust me,its gonna happen.when you get a phone call from the guy that is now running the AVP and he tells me that the Trident may have to go to EMA and there is no room for it and he also said the move will happen sooner rather than later. I am not joking!!!,dont forget the guy is my boss.

IMO it won’t happen
Hmmm…. let’s see.
MAN Plc can either:
a) Carry out their plan to adjust the taxiways in the NW corner of the airfield to ease ground congestion and provide unobstructed taxying clearance to and from T2 for the A380/B777-300, or
b) Scrub all this to save spotters a longer bus ride to the Viewing Park.
Now, which of these do you think is the more likely to happen, Matt? 🙂
By: MANAIRPORTMAD - 20th May 2005 at 21:37
I can’t see how this move is gonna happen?? They have Concorde, the Monarch nose, Vampire and Avro to move, the shops, a new car park and all that. They only just added extentions to the car park and the viewing areas. IMO it won’t happen.
By: TRIDENT MAN - 20th May 2005 at 21:33
MANAIRPORTMAD,yes the AVP is gonna move in the next 12-18 months,Bmused55 the guy was charging around 500 quid a model.
By: MANAIRPORTMAD - 20th May 2005 at 21:22
Bmused,i know the guy that made that model,he also visited ZK for the detail work,ref EMA yeah i think it would be ok to send her there.But im a member of TAS but this is down to Man Airport,the reason for this is that the Viewing park is gonna move over the other side near the fire station ,and it has been said there is no room for ZK!!! 😡
What do you mean ‘ the viewing park is gonna move over the other side ‘? The viewing park is going to move!

Is this good or bad?
Good for EMA Aeropark, not so good for TAS at Manchester.
