I am not sure on what basis you can argue that Sturgate is stagnating. The dawn patrol in early February attracted 60 visitors, last June's fly-in attracted 156 aircraft over two days and the club has some of the cheapest flying in the country. Eastern Aviation, the maintenance organisation is usually overwhelmed with work and has gone from strength to strength with its new ownership. Perhaps you should pay a visit at the next flyin at the beginning of June and experience how friendly the club is. Its not perfect but the club members put in a great deal of effort to make it a success.
