Exeter Restrictions

Now there's a surprise

>>>This latter zone would have meant Exeter International Airport acquiring and demolishing several properties in the village of Honiton Clyst at considerable cost which would inevitably have had to be passed on to the single engine aircraft users who were the reason for the extent of the 1-10,000 zone<<<<

Surely the cost should be passed on to all users, as the risk involves any aircraft, but it does show Exeter's attitude to GA.

>>>>These two scenarious were taken to the airport User Group and the group was of the opinion that the reduction in runway length was by far the preferred option<<<

.... of the two given options, agreed. However, was consideration ever given to other options??
