Don't make assumptions. Friends of mine used to live down the road from Deurne and one of them kept a light aircraft there. I do know the area quite well.

As for anyone running scheduled services between there and AMS... it's not going to happen. No one is going to run flights on routes this short any more (unless they're to or between tiny islands). Just look at what's happened to short routes in the UK. I remember LHR-BHX, I remember LHR-NWI. They've all gone and they won't be coming back. With today's fuel prices, landing fees, handling fees etc etc they're just not economically viable.
