significant commercial, infrastructure and legal issues' to address
Read that as 'Investment and restoration with taxpayers money from the defence budget'

Every single serviceman/woman recently made redundant ahead of his/her time will be delighted to read this. If Scampton has decayed as comments on this forum have suggested; then I put to you that Scampton is a Red Herring sown to lesten the immediate impact and give two years grace before the anoraks notice they have been duped.

Scampton was staffed as a sticking plaster to cover the 2015/6 air shows and rejected. Enough said. ...... and in the unlikely event that it goes ahead in 2017, it will still be a detraction from the opeational effectiveness of Waddington as the demand for 'rent a crowd' servicemen to work at such an event is massive.
