Hi Craig,
I'm not privvy to the negotiations or news regarding new airlines. From what I can see, the T2 terminal's pretty full at the moment and with the old Domestic Express Terminal being leased out as office space, I'm not sure where they could go
Lukas, if it were that simple, I'm sure Macquarie would have jumped at the chance to build another terminal. Try having a look at the masterplan located on the
www.sydneyairport.com website; that may give you an idea as to where the airport thinks it will be in 10 or 20 years time (not really sure of the projection of the masterplan...I've never really taken an interest in it!)
Brenden, for you? No chance! haha.
I'm sure somewhere in your collection of pics from your time around the traps you'd have shots of the old Hangar 1/2/3/83 complex.
With a bit of smart editing, you can digitally remove Hangars 1 and 2, add some light poles, a fence and some taxi cabs behind it. Then put 3 Rex Saabs in front of the fence and voila! you have yourself one Dom-3B apron!
When you've done it, please share!
I'll see what I can do tomorrow night...I might be able to squeeze just one pic of the whole area for you!
The Hangar 83 area now has a concrete and chain mesh fence around it. A worksplan has been issued, so demolition should start sometime this week I'd imagine.
