Re. other airfields
The old airfield at Burscough (near Ormskirk) is being developed around the edges but the airfield is still largely intact but needs a major clean up to accept aircraft but it may already be too late,
And Samlesbury is owned by BAe Systems but the RAF volunteer gliding school effectively "squats" there and does any maintainance itself through the RAF.
New building work for the JSF and Typhoon means that the days of this airfield are numbered too. Its already separated from the main site by a new perimeter fence across the airfield.
