We are in to interpretations. Which boundary are they talking about?
The boundary of the current EASA Certificated Aerodrome is most probably the boundary fence. This is part of the overall Southampton International Airport site, ie excluding such things as car parks, hangars and the northeast corner grass area.
If you look at Google Earth you will see an access track leading to the northeast corner, presumably on land owned by AGS. If AGS owned land extends out to the edge of the rail yard re-alignment of the track appears to be an option and therein moving the boundary fence would be possible. This would add approximately 55+ metres to the equation. Longer 02 TORA versus RESA?
