Woodford Airport Future !! ???

[POL]

Bit close to a very busy airfield for a racecourse you'd have thought?

Assuming that the Vuclan to be refurbished is XM603, I think this might be a tad optimistic...The airframe is off limits these days because it's deemed to be too dangerous to go near, and I suspect it's going to end up in the same state as the Nimrod Mark 4s did from Woodford recently.

(That said, I'd be only too happy to be proven wrong!)

Sad news for a local boy who grew up on a diet of Woodford airshows in the 70s and 80s, and who still drives past the now-desolate airfield every day on his way to and from work...
