Due to the problem with the website I've put an alternative online.

http://glidehigh.co.uk/rochester/ob1.htm

If anyone from Rochester Airport has a issue with what I've done e-mail me at [email protected] and I'll remove it straight away.

Signed and posted this morning.
Good luck

DG

Objection in the post to the council. Is airfield too close to the motorway so they want to build a major distribution centre, and earn lots of extra business rates!!! who was first!

My first message folks !
If we keep loosing airfields we'll have nowhere to land Me dread is that the field will close while I'm airborne and I won't get back

Talking Help for EGTO (Rochester)

Many thanks to all Ppruners in downloading the objection forms. Sorry about the server glitches but there was some sort of DNS problem. Still don't know what it was.

Anyway the forms are also available on http://glidehigh.co.uk/rochester/ob1.htm and http://www.rochester2.flyer.co.uk

Please spend 10 mins this weekend to lodge your objections. Any problems mail me [email protected]

My forms will be in the post this weekend.
Perhaps you should get in touch with Mr Kemble of the PFA. With thier help they got a result at Little Gransden against South Cambs Council.
Good Luck

posted my forms yesterday. EGTO is my base, I love the place, the staff are wonderful, and those t*****s at Medway Council want to bulldoze it. Their behaviour makes you weep for the future of democracy in this country.

good work

As I see it there are at least 135 forms objecting to the actions of meadway council from this thread , I have sent my forms off to them and Mrs A and C is about to send five as well.

Well done to all of you and I congratulate the people of rochester airport for getting there act together so quickly , it is clear that the council are playing fast and lose with the planning regulations in an attempt to close the airport.

I cannot understand why they want to build more units when there are units on estates all around the Medway area that have been empty for years !!
My theory is that the answer is simpler and more insidious than mere rents. It is called "kick-back". Town councellors are all effing Free Masons (well enough to make it matter) and are in for a secure future in business if they tow the line.

I wish the Labour government had the guts to follow through on a bill requiring all Masons to make themselves known. Of course that got well and truely scuttled along the way.
