Good grief - hard to believe they never had this position previously!

Looks like re-creating what Francois used to do, but only for GLA. Perhaps a recognition that route development needs dedicated attention, although having one person dividing their attention over 3 airports may be a stretch. A good move, let's hope they fill the post without too much delay.
