On the basis of what has been revealed so far, i.e no organisaton with an ounce of commercial nouse is prepared to take on Coventry as a going commercial concern, then the local councils who own the land have an obligation to the local rate payers to sell it for the highest possible price.

If it was that simple one wonders why Mike Collet didnt do exactly that immediately instead of walking away and not coming back - perhaps he saw the light.


If that means it is sold to GRICH Ltd, who will then be free to run the place as he sees fit at considerable expense to himself, so be it.

Realistaclly chaps, no one is going to pick up the airport site for sixpence, your chance to that has long gone, what now remains is a huge site with huge potential - but never as an airport or an airfield of any kind.
