The five options laid out in the council's leaflet are as follows:
A - No change to current airfield layout, with continuation of current activities.
B - Reconfiguration of 02/20 runways, one to be 800m and the other parallel relief runway 600m. Loss of cross runway which would be redeveloped as technology/business park.
C - Single 800m hard runway to replace 02/20 grass runways. Loss of cross runway. Larger area to be developed as technology parks.
D - Closure of airfield. Mixed development of 1000 houses, community facilities and business park with some open space.
E - Closure of airfield, with 200 houses and larger business park with some open space.
The guys at the airport are asking that any support lists Option A as the preferred option, followed by Option B and C.
They've also just spent a lot of time refurbishing their clubhouse, and have a whole list of fly-ins and events planned for the coming year. We owe it to them to give our full support, so get writing and emailing, it might be enough to tip the balance!
