Sabrejet, why would we need regional airports all over the place? Have you looked at the size of the UK in comparison to the other European nations you mentioned?

I love the pedantry on this forum. :highly_amused:
I have worked on Stepen Grey’s fleet, though he never spells his name incorrectly. Never met that Gray fellow, Maud…

Who’s that?
What’s the latest on EN224? The last I saw was an article in FP showed a fuselage frame in the jig at Bentwaters.
