Try that link I gave max they are meant to be out of the political system.

I am not suprised last year nobody would touch it with a barge pole.

That amount of money getting pissed up a wall would have caused the politicians all sorts of issues. You might say why didn't of any the other partys bother, well I suspect that they proberly all had something to do with approving it. And if it does come to light what really went on the Proc fiscal might have to get involved.

I still reckon that the whole thing was someones cunning plan gone horribly wrong by accident. Personally I reckon that plan was to get the airport removed and the land released for something else. Put this plan forward get the runway condemed when the project was refused due to it being uneconomic and that would have got rid of it. Unfortunatly the none aviation savy local politicans ran with it and we are left with the mess which is Oban today.
