News from the GAAC
The GAAC reports a number of issues in its latest newsletter. Amongst these are the results of the '28 day rule' planning consultation and efforts of the 'Fly Finningley' campaign to promote the development of a commercial airport at the former RAF base near Doncaster.

As far as the latter is concerned it is noted that whilst the results of a public inquiry is still awaited, the Fly Finningley campaign is still actively seeking support (see www.fly-doncaster.com for details).

The GAAC comments...
"The developers of Finningley will not consider the needs of GA unless you draw their attention to them. A new major  area of controlled airspace for this location would be far more limiting than the MATZ that applied at RAF Finningley until its closure."

The GAAC also alerts us to latest development relating to the Government's work on 'The Future Development of Air Transport in the United Kingdom' which is also the subject of the latest A4A alert.

To learn more about the GAAC and the invaluable work it does in support of GA, subscribe to the e-mail newsletter, and ways in which you can lend your support, see the GAAC web site.
