Aircraft in Charlwood?

Climbing out of Gatwick today I noticed many parked aircraft in Charlwood but not at the Gatwick aviation museum, I’ve located them on google earth at

51° 9’16.98″N
0°14’2.68″W

Can anyone shed some light on these planes?

No, no, and yes.

I find it incredible though that the Gatwick museum has had so much hassle with planing etc, yet houses can conveniently be put up on a nearby site.

The “Faygate” yard

I believe that planning permission for about 12 houses has finally been approved for the whole site. .

So when do the (new) residents start complaining about the sounds (noise) of the adjacent airport with the aim of getting it closed down?? :confused:

The “Faygate” yard (once used by Aerospace Logistics) has long gone, it has a new house on the site.

Aerospace Logistics have a newish facility on the nearby Crawley industrial estate. The Charlwood site is likely to be cleared soon, I believe that planning permission for about 12 houses has finally been approved for the whole site.

Jaguar XX121 is supposed to be heading for GAM “any day now”.
