Surely you have "woken up & smell the coffee!", you are being stitched up big time.
It actually isn't the size of the proposed housing development that is the main issue, more the precedent that is being established. It's the commencement of the erosion of airport land for other purposes. It is actually a self fulfilling prophesy, as once the development exceeds a critical mass, then those new inhabitants will actually side with developers to restrict & actually "get rid" of that "nasty noisy airport" that someone had the audacity to construct on their doorsteps all those years ago !
Unfortunately it's the way things are !, if you consider this far fetched then review as to how much trouble was caused by very few inhabitants prior to the construction of the second Tyne Tunnel.
Anyway even if all this goes over your head then who in their right mind builds housing on airport land when the view for UK development in the UK is completely the opposite?
Unfortunately it may possibly transpire that the best contribution that Peel may offer to those currently employed at DTVA is in the proviosion of their shares as a home for redundancy monies.
