As stated the management at Weston are concerned. The stupid thing is their licensed piece of runway sits on a huge section of runway yet because of planning issues they cannot use it.
The other major point is its not just the 900 airfields which will suffer badly.
One of the people I fly for uses airfields near his customer bases which are not reachable without a private jet or turboprop.
His missions would be impossible using scheduled airline so everyone suffers Airports and local businesses alike.
For what is there any evidence that private jets are crashing off the end of runways anymore than AOC ops?
I wish EASA would concentrate on plugging demonstrable safety holes rather than imaginary ones and stop using safety as a protectionism tool.
