Oliver good luck with your dream. I hope it works out.
FWIW
Fantasy, is always better than reality, and without dreams and fantasy we would be much poorer.
Fact, the UK weather is very poor and can severely limit the amount of flying one can do.
Fact, UK planning laws, coupled with the general attitude to anything entrepreneurial in the UK, is filled with doom.
Fact, if I wanted an Air Park home, it would be where the weather is CAVOK, 365 days of the year - ARIZONA/some parts of SOCAL.
Fact, NIMBYS can ruin your day, and there are a lot of them in the UK, backed by fried and envious Councillors.
Fact, I do not think the wealth, in numbers, exist in the UK, to make a viable commercial venture. Who would fund this BTW? Those with wealth, fly off to Cannes, and join up with the boat.
Aeroplane's are for going places. Why would it make any sense, to fork out 750K, on an Air Park home in the UK, when all we want is some sun and heat, which we can travel to in our aeroplane's?
I am with Sam, and I have looked, and at one stage nearly found it. Country house with field, for my own private strip. I dream on however.
