airstrips

Hi,

I forgot to mention the £££££ bit. The cost of running an airstip may vary depending on the facilities that you provide. My airstip is quite a humble affair, one 800m stip & one 500m totaling 40 acres of grass, Hangars,Clubroom etc. it still takes a lot of time & money to keep.

The returns are quite low for the amount of work you have to put in. in the 20 years that I have had my Airstrip I would say that my other business ventures have subsidised it by an average of some £5000.00 per year. so if you want to create a small business, just buy a big one and then buy an airfield, it won't be long before your big businees gets smaller !
