Very sad from an aviation history point of view alone. Blackpool was very 'go ahead' in the days of early aviation, sponsoring flying pageants in 1909 and 1910, the latter being on the Squire's Gate site.
It's a great pity if 'dinosauritis' has killed it. I used to enjoy flying in there in happy days when you paid your (very reasonable) landing fee to the bloke in the fire station office, then out through the side gate and away.
