On the broader issues regarding Biggin Hill and possible expansion - There is little doubt it is the ambitions of the airfields controlling operator to
have aircraft movemements considerably increased -
Sorry Brian but actually the movements have declined over the years as the GA sector reduces. We are no where near approaching the 125,000 movements permitted under the operating lease. Back in the 70's and 80's we could reach that figure just with flying club traffic alone!

The corporate market continues to expand, hence the increase in the number of hangars catering for them. All the locally based limo drivers know the best ways in and out of London.
