Leeds Bradford - General Thread

The airport dont do their own media. They use a media company unless things have changed. Better any publicity than none at all which until recently that's what we got. There's a constant campaign by LBA advertising the Wizz flights which is good to see..

If they have paid for a company to do it then it’s even more concerning!

Well, that's just your opinion. Others may disagree.

i did state that it was my opinion in my previous posts.

Yes you did. I'm just stating the obvious, that some may not agree, and they may be pleased that at last LBA are investing in publicity, (in the past they have been criticised for not doing so). Some may like the videos, some might not. You can't please all the people all of the time. Presumably, this publicity is produced by professionals, and presumably LBA are happy with it. Personally,.I'm just glad they're doing something. About time.

Looks like we have lost the horse cargo charter flights this week to Teesside.

 

[Easy289]

Indeed. Was posted several days ago on a different thread. Presumably no room at the inn?

 

[Finger66]

Not sure they thought the LBA weather was going to be "stable" enough

 

[ls27]

Ney lad. What makes you think that. I suppose it could have been another hurdle though

 

[Len Fish]

All these jokes are falling flat. No offence.

 

[Finger66]

If we run out does that mean we have "stalled"

 

[ls27]

We might have a steward's inquiry

Looks like 17 coming in after midnight.

Is there any facility on F4A whereby you can be notified when a new post is created or is it simply a case of having to access the forum and check?

Hi Easy189
Go to the top of the thread you want to be notified about. You should see "Watch" at the top. Click on it and you will then, if I've got this correct, get an option to have emails sent when new posts are received.
Note, you will only get the notification if you have already visited that thread since it was last updated.
I hope that helps.

I think you can also do this for the forums as well e.g. Leeds Bradford Airport Forum (the page that lists all the threads on the LBA forum.

Just leave this here......

Whilst I dont agree with the sentiment that aviation is a significant contributor to global warming (unless you are of the view that 2% of global CO2 emissions qualify as significant ), it's interesting to see that when these figures were produced, back in the day when DSA existed, LBA were 7th out of 20 with regard to emissions per passenger. Not bad and far better than some quieter airports.

Just imagine where LBA would have been with the new carbon neutral terminal and with the forest to be planted as a carbon offset, neither of which will now happen. The introduction of constant climb and descent for aircraft movements will improve emissions further, if the airport ever manages to get approval from the Department of Transport..

This airport has the highest carbon footprint in the UK

And nope, it’s not one based in London.

Can’t see many people making an effort to choose an eco friendly airport to fly from. I suspect ease of travelling there and flight price are the main drivers.
