This is excellent news for UK GA.
Particularly interesting is the DfT backing. At the Nov 2006 CAA London conference the DfT man (who was no wimp) said that they would work for a change in planning law to enable new GA airfields to be created, knowing that they can't stop property developers from gradually closing down the existing ones. Maybe this is an example of this policy, which would be truly great news.
