Well the "bonkers silly season" has come early this year

Following a High Court decision today, Lydd airport has been given the green light to add an additional 984 feet to the existing 4,938 feet of runway ... and progress investment of £25m on a new Terminal and airport infrastructure.

Just 24 Hrs after Manston closed with it's 9,106 feet of runway

And in terms or remoteness and lack off communication infrastructure ... Lydd is more remote ... ask any Romney Marsh Sheep or have a squint at a Topo

BBC News : Lydd Airport

Lydd Airport : London Ashford Airport

London Ashford Airport ... who are they trying to kid

Rant over ...
