DONCASTER Council”s Planning Committee has approved a planning application by Peel Airports Ltd (operators of Liverpool Airport) for a terminal building at the former RAF Finningley. The airport, less than 10 miles from the M1(A)/M18 junction is expected to be operational for Spring 2005 and to prove attractive to charter operators. Peel Airports is a wholly owned subsidiary of Peel Holdings plc, the northern-based property and transport group, which also owns the Trafford Centre and the Manchester Ship Canal Company.
