Move in with the Arrows at Wittering? Nice long runway. Not a lot of hangarage. Good suggestion, must be a reason why it's not in the frame. Maybe the MoD aren't good sharers?

Boscombe? Earmarked for Boeing. Plus nowhere near Cambridge!

Lyneham - what is happening here these days. Not a lot I don't think. Expect the site to be put forward for housing just as soon as the LA think they can get away with it

Linton closing? Wrong location, short runway. Would assume it will be left to rot for a few years and then sold off cheap to housing developers
