Woken from my slumber again with an over active mind.
This all could very well come down to the SWDC looking upon the landing strip (I shall refuse to call it an "airport" anymore, the word conjurs it up to be something bigger than it is
)
as a money making venture drive by the moguls from NZJMA with promises of riches from "8 weekends a year and one 3 day event", really wow
The writing is on the wall that should NZJMA be given control over the strip, they will at sometime in the near future approach the council for facility upgrades. And who burdens the cost
, the townspeople, because someone from out of town has said "this is a fantastic facility and the council would be well advised to make some improvements for the enjoyment of all".
If the blowhards from NZJMA want the facility, let them buy it.
For the sake of Tokoroa townspeople one would hope that the SWDC do their own figures on costs and income.
That a side, how many members of SWMAC contribute to the local council by being residents and how many from NZJMA-SIG.
If the jet rabble are flying there this weekend, I'd be down there with my camera filming for all I was worth, Bruce. The best part, they can't stop you
.
Only words and not much help, just maybe someone will read this and a light will go on.
