Wisley Airfield Update

Afternoon All, I was having a cup of tea last night by the old entrance at Elm Corner off of the A3 when I noticed some work had been carried out very recently. Most of the logs blocking the entrance have been removed. Getting my torch out I noticed a planning notice attached to the old gate.
I can’t recall the name of the company and it’s so new it isnt on the Surrey CC website yet.
The application is to Surrey rather than Guildford council. It is for permission to use part of the old site for up to 5 years. A waste company wish to import horse manure and process it there for sale elsewhere.
Strangest use I’ve heard of for the old place yet! Still, as the developers paid £22M for the site last year I suppose they have to get their money back anyway they can.
I normally stop off there atleast once every couple of weeks. Any other things of interest and I’ll post them here.

What if?

Mega thread. Maybe getting silly with the hints that are being made but so what? You don’t get anywhere if you don’t dream. I see 320 psi is around this evening. I’d value his opinion on what might be possible with a few old bits seeing the miracles he already performs with his old birds.
Just a couple of questions. What does TSR stand for and if this was no 2 what was no 1?

If true this could be a smart move from Boeing from an environmental point of view.
See this about the silent aircraft project
http://silentaircraft.org/
Sounds to me like this Boeing project could have design similarities.
If they could get the basic design to work and produce a passenger version it could put Boeing years ahead of the competition.
I have to say if I were them I’d be seriously looking at the possibilities.

Yep Sector 1 Freq 132.840 as you’ve already worked out. I’d suggest getting hold of a copy of this simulation http://www.londoncontrol.com
It’s a good simulation but the section maps and info are accurate and are A1 for spotting.
Get the updates when they come out, they are worth it. Saves having to buy loads of charts as well.

Personally I would love to see another viewing area at Gatwick. However I can’t see it being anywhere near where it used to be as airside developments have blocked the view. I’d think it would have to be above the North term or somewhere thereabouts. Yep you could do something at the 08 end in the fields. That would make sense but be a bit limited.
I can’t see that BAA would want to spend money on something for our benefit though, not enough money in it for them.
Having said that, why would Gat Pol be interested in an ID card system for enthusiasts if BAA weren’t going to do something? There isn’t anything in the terminals for us so I would expect to be kicked out if I was there just loitering around. If you’re at the 08 end I’m sure the Police already know the regular faces.
Confused as to motives/reasons and more info req is the only conclusion I can come to at the moment.
