Oban.

Hi Rod1.

I accept that a runway has been lost and some lighter aircraft may not be albe to visit under certain X wind conditions. However the new tarmac runway is a cracker.

One of the reasons Oban has not won any prizes recently has more to do with the constant negativity posted here. Of course the numbers are down, I flew in a few months ago and posted my delight at the friendly service and good facilities and was rebuked for saying so. Some encouragement for other pilots to pay a visit to the new Oban.

Of course many mistakes have been made by the council and I'm sure they know it. Constantly knocking Oban and the visiting pilots will not do any good to the long term future of Oban.

So I repeat, Oban is better than before in my opinoin as a visiting pilot.
