Northolt to close for 9months

Post by Chrisj468 » Sun May 08, 2016 7:31 pm

Apologies if it has been posted somewhere on this forum already but a posting on the Northolt-Farnborough Yahoo group quotes the minutes of the South Ruislip Residents Association meeting (srra.org.uk/category/raf-northolt/). This says

"The runway is going to be resurfaced next year. New base to the tarmac needed, very invasive work. Therefore the runway is going to close next year for around 9 months."

No date mentioned or what will happen to current operations.

I'd guess Farnborough or Brize more likely maybe Odiham for BN2S

See what happens.

Thats it then, Heathrow will get the 3rd runway and Northolt will close permanently in a couple of years. :whistle:
