yet another airfield could go down the plug hole !
maybe I am wrong but it seems that this country no longer cares about its heritage and education anymore.
As for Dunsford, I would be very surprised if the development went ahead (within the next 5 - 10 years at least) as I am told the owners of the site are making too much money out of it to build houses.
I have heard a rumor (so not too sure if it is true) but to hire out the runway (say for professional driving courses) there is a graded price scheme.
The more you pay for the usage means that can have the use of the runway at key times.
The less you pay means that you get some crap hours to use it in.
So that's why I would be surprised if the housing development went ahead at the moment. The owners are making too much money out of the site from various business interests.
