Talking New Sunderland Airport

Rumours from inside city council is that a new Airport is to be built in Sunderland.... can anyone confirm.... apparently it will be attached to Doxford park and have hangar space for one C172.... Just I want to park my third share of a Cessna 172 there (GBDUM).... Thanks in advance King Gorm01 x

Mac went to NCL and drove the avgas bowser for Gill for a couple of years. He then became a porter at the local general hospitol.
Lost touch after that.

Last time I saw Berry, he was airport manager at Dundee. That was about 1988.

I think Don was transfered to the local fire service when the airport closed in 1984.

Not sure what Jos did.

Thanks BALLSOUT yes I must admit I saw Mac at NCL early 90's, I talked to Berry a few times when I worked at Edinburgh, never remembered me but.............
Jos I know went into the housing department of the council when the airport closed, thats the last I'd heard.
See lots of other faces flying in/out of NCL, happy days.....
