Excellent, they're not expecting the diggers in any time soon then.

I think it was about 1998 BAe paid millions to have the runway fully resurfaced, two tears later they closed the site. At a W&W a few years ago they said there was a company wanted to dig up the runway so they could sell the gravel underneath!

There were always rumours that there's a WWII bomb dump buried on the site somewhere.

Just before the site closed, someone realised there was a tank of 4star under a pump between two buildings. they couldn't leave it there as it was "hazardous waste", the couldn't sell it because leaded petrol was banned, so they had to give it away to those of us with cars that could run on it - broke the site manager's heart :D

Stumbled across this.

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!!
For its 15th Show, Wings & Wheels is returning to its original 2005 spot in June! The airshow will now take place on Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th June 2019.

The decision to change the date was made following the announcement that the Red Arrows will be on tour in North America throughout August and September .... blah blah blah
