This item is not directly concerned solely on Europa business but you can
see that Northrepps Airfield is under threat from the planning authorities.
I'm sure that we Aviators would soon call for help should our own airfield
facility become threatened by planning authorities.
Spare a thought for these folks at Northrepps and spend 10 minutes
draughting a letter towards their support as below.
I am sorry if any duplication of this message has caused you any
inconvenience.
Best regards
Bob Harrison Europa G-PTAG

Sorry to be a pain (especially if you had this already) but they have taken
some advice and if you see below an E mail to the planning guys wouldn't go
a miss?
No suggestion as to what to say and how apart from support as originality is
the key from what I can gather.
Usual request to badger your fellow aviator friends.
Thanks, Regards, Clive

Right then, here we go:
Chris Gurney (Airfield Owner & Operator) has been advised by his
Planning Agent (Peter Kember, who specializes in this area) that it would
really make the Planning Officer sit up and take note if a tidal wave of
e-mails in support of the Planning Application Renewal arrive at his inbox,
just as he did when a couple of hundred letters of objection fell on his
doormat. The majority of these were identical, funnily enough, so I'm hoping
you'll each input a bit of originality into messages of support that you
send.
Please set out e-mail in the following manner;
ian.thompson@north-norfolk.gov.uk
CC: <mailto:support@northreppsaerodrome.co.uk>
support@northreppsaerodrome.co.uk
Subject: Winspurs Farm, Northrepps Aerodrome,
<http://planweb.north-norfolk.gov.uk/Planning/AcolNetCGI.exe?ACTION=UNWRAP&R
IPNAME=Root.PgeResultDetail&TheSystemkey=72456> PF/09/1082
Txt: To include the following.....
"I am writing to you in support of the above application."
It would then be appreciative if you could either write what you did on the
online petition or compose just a short line why you think Northrepps
Aerodrome should be granted permanent permission. Please include your name
and address or town so they can see where support is coming from.
I know it's a bit of a pain, but a couple of minutes spent now could save
the airfield. A copy is being sent to us at the airfield so we can get an
idea how many are sent.
The crew at Northrepps really thank you for your time and effort.
