Frankly, I'd hope when the current plans are finished, they build a great-big ****-off Amazon distribution centre and a supermarket regional depot, plus a few thousand houses, on the airfield, just to piss off the locals.

Having served at linton and being a resident in the area for 20+ years I suspect that it was just you that the locals hated.
Tha RAF has been welcome here since the base was built.
