A number of people in the local MSG area have been hearing about possible wind turbines being placed on the airport site if Peel don't get their way with housebuilding.
Peel are apparently worried about the Save the airport members who have asked the government to look into the legality of how the casting planning vote by one member was allowed at the recent Darlington council meeting.
Peel are no stranger to wind turbines. Their subsidiary is Peel Energy who are currently trying to build 145m (475ft) high turbines in Lerwick.
I wonder why Whittaker doesn't put the 145m turbines outside his mansion on the Isle of Man if he's so keen on them?

Question: could Peel build turbines on the airport land if they closed the airport due to its current costs, or are there covenants on the land to stop this from happening?
