Funding Lasham's Farnborough Airspace Campaign

Lasham Gliding Society has started fund raising to allow donations by supporters of its campaign against the CAA's decision to create unnecessary controlled airspace around Farnborough Airfield. The link needed to make a donation is on the home page of the Society's web-site.

Delighted to oblige John - we all need to weigh in on this one (or resign ourselves to sitting in pubs reminiscing about what we used to be able to do before big business grounded us).

Surely Lasham GS and the BGA already had their chance to object during the negotiations didn't they?
I think there should be another referendum on the subject

Hi Chevvron

Read the CAA decision document, and the BGA response. Also the recent report by the All Party Parliamentary Aviation Group, (in the unlikely event of your being serious).

If we don't help Lasham take this action then Brize & Oxford will get all they have asked for. Who will be next? Perhaps Benson will ask for a 5nm radius class D? That would pretty much seal off South East England.
There has to be a better way to decide what segregated airspace should created. The current method is just plain daft. If Lasham's Judicial Review gets this methodology changed then it will have been worth it.
