I would like to think so OC, but my natural pessimism inclines me to believe this isn't the case. It seems that too many airfields are struggling to remain open.
Whatever the answer is we must at some point compromise and that may well entail a new approach, literally. It would help also if our beloved CAA could be a little more proactive with regard to quieter aircraft, and accept some of the silencer mod's from overseas.....Apologies to them of course if I'm behind the times and they already have.
