There was talk about a purpose built air movements airhead at Wattisham some time back, anyone know if this is still on the backburner or whether it has now been discounted?
I would have thought the cost of flattening the Southern HAS Site would be prohibitive, after all, these shelters are designed to be moderately difficult to destroy.

Note that the HAS sites at Alconbury, Upper Heyford, Bentwaters etc still stand, even if they are just used for car/grain storage etc. Even the new landowners must have baulked at the cost of demolishing them.
