New GA/Gliding Airfield in the Bicester Area?

Bicester Gliding Club is looking to lease or purchase a site in the Bicester area for gliding, GA and community use. Could be useful if any GA groups wanted to join in a joint venture.

They are looking for at least 80 acres within 35 miles of Bicester.

Details and rationale are here:https://www.bicesteradvertiser.net/n...find-new-site/

"It is hoping to establish a new green, open and 'vibrant' facility that will not only serve gliding and other aviation sporting users, but also the local community."

A brave move and i wish them every good luck - I started my flying there in 1973.
