Scampton Holdings wanted to keep the airfield open. They wanted R313 to stay and anticipated the reds continuing to use it. They wanted to build a viewing area as part of the heritage site. Outside of the reds practice times the airfield would have been available for GA and the aspiration was that going forward it would be used as part of the new R&D enterprise park.
