Tower is well impresive. What other developments going on at the moment at EDI?

I have to agree it doesn't look spectacular! it would look better in silver colour or something

Work on the new terminal extension starts next month. Should bring an extra 6 contact stands I think it is. Where the remote stands are just now to the South East.

I personally think it looks very impressive, especially from close up. Not sure why they felt the need to make it 'stripy' though?

All it needs is a giant golf ball shaped radar dome on the roof.

What a weird tower.
The best ones I've seen recently are DXB and the new one at LHR.

Not really... NO! Just joking! ;) Like I said in my first post I'm not sure if I'll have the time, well, I'm not sure yet anyway, so it might be just a wee bit short notice... ;) But I'll let you know.
