Hello, I’m hoping you can help.
I’m trying to find out who to contact regarding business premises in the area around the Fire Training Centre / skydive School etc. I’m keen to find suitable premises for my business & would like to talk to someone regarding anything available near DTV Airport.
Do you know who or where to contact & would you provide details if you have them please?
Thank you

please don’t publish that last comment…. i didn’t realize it was a comment, thought it was a contact form!
Is the Durham Tees Hotel on the airport?
Hi Paul, it’s the new name for what was the Spa Hotel. It is located on the airport site, about 2-3 mins walk from the terminal.
Could you please advise me if any of the Aviation Engineering Companies at the airport offer apprenticeships for 18 year old college leavers.
I served in the Fleet Air Arm & have worked for Aerospace companies since leaving, & now my son is wanting to develop a career within aviation now that he has finished college.
Many thanks,
Geoff Starling.
