Bicester Airfield
Local Oxfordshire press reports that the ex-RAF airfield at Bicester is to be spared from large scale housing development. Original plans called for the airfield to be redeveloped to accommodate 1,500 new homes, but this has now been scaled back to 300 new homes on the North Western corner of the airfield. Further information published in the March edition of Pilot magazine reports that the site has been acquired by the Grove 2000 consortium which intends to preserve the airfield's Grade II listed buildings. Grove 2000 was previously reported by the local press in October 1999 as intending to develop the site as an aviation heritage centre with a range of indoor and outdoor sports facilities which would also allow gliding to continue from the airfield.
