Bit of a long haul for ex 613 staff, but then a lot of people commuted from Middlesex/Hertfordshire to Manston when 617 was transferred there.
Pity one or both airfields couldn't be retained though., especially Halton as Aylesbury Vale District Council don't seem to be interested in the site, so I expect in accordance with the original covenant, it will revert to farmland.
