POTENTIAL CLOSURE OF ANOTHER FIELD
 

I recently received an e-mailed appeal from a concerned pilot who is helping to ammass support for a smaller grass strip that faces closure. I have enclosed a copy of the appeal, and those of you who wish to stop the erosion of our freedom to fly may send e-mail letters of support to Barry Clifford. His e-mail address is [email protected]

I give the copy below:

Dear colleague

Please can you help with our airfield - Clutton Hill Airfield (7m E of
Bristol EGGD) has been operational since 1973 providing an attractive grass
airfield for GA. We are now faced with possible closure due to a couple of
newcomers in the area, to be brief with have had various planning
applications and a public enquiry over the last two years and are now having
a second final public enquiry to decide the airfields future, we need as
many letters of support from the aviation community as possible.

Please help stop the closure of another airfield before it's too late.

Help us to keep Britain on the aviation map!

Same old story. Move in to an area knowing full well there's an airfield nearby then stir things up.
