it annoys me that Woodford (EGCD) hasn't been grabbed as an "air park". There are enough affluent aviators already in Prestbury, Bramhall and other like places to make it an interesting possibility. The standard "to close to Manch argument is bollox. We coped with gliding up to 1,000 ft Woodford AGL without dramas and AVRO test flights.
I think the key word is not "can't" but "won't".
