I would'nt like to think that Oban's Airport Development Manager had finaly managed to achieve his stated objective, and gagged any public disscusion (and scrutiny) over his methods and achievments.

He so far has destroyed any GA activity of many, our tour of the west coast of Scotland that was scheduled for August past did not happen, instead 6 aircraft and passengers flew to the east coast of the UK and spent the time there.... including hotels/restaurants/shopping/landing fees/fuel, our activity probably left in excess of £5000 in the local economy....... this is to the detriment of Oban/Glenforsa and the local economy of those areas... this is a pity as the west coast has stunning scenery and worth visiting, but until this sad state of affairs is sorted then many in the GA community will go elsewhere..... where next?.. France looks good.
