I suspected as much that was the case 'Wagit', sad really was a fun place once. Those that have never been there won't know any different & can't compare, not too sure I want to go back now as all I would be doing is comparing.
The control twr was funny, a couple of guys standing there in an elevated makeshift platform surrounded by hessian playing ATC. In those days you where sh1t scared to put a foot out of place & call upon all the airmanship you could muster to impress the authority:-) Once the sun went down the same guys could be found in the pub being normal like the rest of us, well normal for those days:-)
Nothing is 4ever but am glad I got the chance to see the real BDV b4 that too has been killed off.
