Whoooooaa!!!! "Not Barton cos it going to go the same way" h-hm ! The Club hasnt got a new owner. The airfield operations havent got a new owner.

The airfield lease has a new owner. But The land is in Salford, comes under Salford planning authority and IF THERE IS SUPPORT particularly from people who think positively, then Lancs Aero Club will survive. We've only been going since 1922 so I really think some positive attitude is needed here.

The airfield isnt going to disappear next week. The lease runs at least until 2003. And the more people who come to Barton, use it, and fight for its continuance, the better its long term chances. So PLEASE DO NOT WRITE US OFF !! We're thriving and we will continue to do so!

Hope you emailed Salford !! Or would you rather fly from Liverpool & pay high fees?
