A Doncaster Sheffield Airport employee from Nottinghamshire who aspired to work there as a child has been 'devastated' by its impending closure. Josh Brown, 31, started working at airport as a security guard 12 years ago, before being promoted to airfield operations officer five years into the job.
As reported by the Mirror, Mr Brown has always had a passion for airports and had hoped for a job at Doncaster Sheffield when plans for it were first put forward when he was a child. With flight schedules to the airport to be wound down from next month, and Liz Truss's promise to keep it open seemingly not materialising, his and 800 other people's jobs are now at risk.
A further 1,900 jobs linked to the airport are also in jeopardy. "I love the airport, I love working in this industry and in this airport specifically," Mr Brown said.
