Well it seems I was on the mark after all, despite what a previous poster said !
I just received this in my mail.
" Help yourself chaps, there's plenty of trade for everyone ! "
Seriously, please put digit on keyboard - I don't know the campaign organisers, but I sympathise with them completely;
for anyone with nothing better to do, my little bit about Dunsfold is at

Please sign up before it's too late !
As for the alleged plan to make a museum with " every type operated from Dunsfold " - well the wealthiest billionaire aircraft enthusiast couldn't manage that, so take that as you will from a property developer...

Public consultation started last Friday on Dunsfold Park New Town Planning Application
You only have until 30th May 2008 to make your views known.
Despite taking 5 years to plan and five weeks for Waverley to check, the general public have only 3 weeks in which to lodge their objections to Dunsfold Parks planning application for 2,601 houses.
This development will have a
major impact on anyone living in the towns and villages in the Guildford Horsham Haslemere triangle. The new town will be 2½ times the size of Chiddingfold and will be built in 10 years rather than over 1,000 years. Our infrastructure and precious countryside cannot cope with such a massive and rapid increase in population.
- If you live or travel on the A281 or A283 or the many adjoining country lanes - you will be affected.
- If you use the local services - hospitals, schools, railways, etc. - you will be affected.
- If you love our beautiful local countryside - you will be affected.
It is very important that as many objections as possible are lodged.
If Waverley refuses the application, the number of objectors will become a very significant consideration when Dunsfold Park inevitably lodge an appeal.
Please forward this email to your friends and neighbours and get them to file their objections NOW.
To register your objection you can either go to the
Waverley web site or send an email to
[email protected]
Attached to this email is a leaflet that will be delivered to households in the areas most affected. If you want to understand why this development is so wrong please read it carefully. It also contains hints on the best way to lodge objections, which are summarised below.
Thank you for support. Together we CAN make a difference.

Helpful Hints
You should set out the reasons which concern you, preferably in your own language rather than simply copying our suggestions word for word.
Road infrastructure. The existing road structure cannot cope with the additional traffic that will be generated. There are no plans to improve the roads other than the construction of a new access from Dunsfold Park to the A281. [Add details of any roads that you use which you consider will be particularly adversely affected such as the Bramley bottleneck and local rat runs].
Planning policy. The proposal is in conflict with all local, regional and central Government planning policies in particular The Waverley Borough Local Plan 2002, The Surrey Structure Plan 2004 and the draft South East Plan. There are no good grounds for departing from these planning policies.
Situation. The site is relatively remote and rural and almost entirely surrounded by an Area of Great Landscape Value as well as being on the edge of the Green Belt. It has Sites of Special Scientific Interest and other ecologically sensitive areas around it and to the east there are substantial areas that are liable to flooding.
Services. The resultant increase in the population will impose an excessive additional burden on local services such as hospitals, schools and railways.
Wrong place. Housing on this scale should not be lumped together in one remote rural location. In particular the affordable housing required to meet local needs should be built in the existing towns and villages in Waverley where it is needed.
Please do this NOW and forward the email on to others immediately.
