Aircraft operations at Booker can be SR-SS, but yes, it's been there since WW2, the local noise is fairly minimal, and if they close the place down they can have Wycombe Wasps and all their supporters instead!
I recall some years ago some local NIMBY nearly getting strung up from a lampost after going around with a petition demanding that the noisy Spitfire based there at the time was sent away. The residents of Wycombe were very clear on that point
I wonder what happened to the new government's policy of minimum goverment and decentralisation?
