Yes P. Its called stealth in some places.

Its called Bromley council in others, and there are many who have not forgiven Dennis for getting involved with it. Its now a case of bring on the planning requests and they WILL grant them.

I fear for Biggin I have to say and always felt that all the money spent to make it a viable proposition was a waste. Without the scheduled services that Biggin needed years ago, and desperately needs now, it will not go forth - for it is now too late.

Watch out for planning requests on finals for 21. Never mind the one on Main Road. The developers are not daft. There is prime land all around the airfield and when their planned encroachments onto the perimeter are approved they know that the people will complain - eventually - and then they will start what they always intended, to get the prime building site that is Biggin Hill underway for a massive housing development. Oh! Don't forget the valley! Still much land to build on there.

All was proposed many years ago and now it is not more than just a few years off.


Just my view you understand.
