The mistake was made years ago when the local council decided that Lulsgate should be Bristol Airport. At least now they have some landing aids,in my day it was just LGT an NDB
On the North side of Bristol was a very good airport,I refer of course to Filton,which was close to M4, M5 and a main line railway station. It had a long runway suitable for long and short haul routes. Lulsgate was a poor airfield ,badly positioned even for the old a/c that i flew in there[DC-3,Viscount ,Bac 11] but this is what happens when you allow local politicians to make decisions,exactly the same problems at CWL Politicians make these decisions without knowing what they are doing
