Thats about it, which is why the CAF departed when faced with reality. The 'museum' aspect was given much assistance to help them establish themselves, but they were in a poor location for visitor attendance, and also still inside the Airport security zone. Cornwall simply does not have enough local population to support such ventures, and the very short visitor season is well over supplied with venues to attend. I am a frequent critic of the Council over various matters, but in this case they were as helpful as they could have been.
