What the local councils say about building on the former Pontin's site is one thing. Has anyone considered that the CAA might want to have an input into this?
Following the Hansa accident in 1972 (yes, I know it's a long time ago, but accidents still happen), when six of the chalets were destroyed and several others damaged, serious questions were asked about whether alterations to the layout of the site should be made, but they were subsequently rebuilt in the same place. However, I notice from the plans which have been submitted that there is a green open area approximately in line with runway 10, (not to be confused with the one bordering the SSSI), so presumably some consideration has been given to this by the developers.
