Hi Folks

I'm looking to get some ideas from the membership, about GA airfields that people consider are underused and are ideally placed to get more business if a demand could be created.

Ideally 4-5 locations in the UK, reasonable access as it would be used by people unfamiliar with aviation, initially with the capacity in the airspace to introduce something like a Parachute Zone - or small column of airspace that could be created at certain times of the day. It would also be a bonus if there were any buildings where a classroom session could be held.

If any place comes to mind, please get in touch, either through here or by PM.

I would have thought that Cranfield Airport would be an ideal place, for it is not busy and there are plenty of classrooms available.
