Thumbs up from expert for airport

AN AVIATION expert has approved the Solent Airport at Daedalus.

Aviation and air travel broadcaster David Learmount paid a visit to the site earlier this week to review Fareham Borough Council’s ongoing commitment to the project.

Mr Learmount said: ‘Having been instinctively sceptical about Fareham Borough Council’s plans for Daedalus, I admit now to being impressed at their considerable investment in the aerodrome infrastructure, the ambitious plans for attracting hi-tech aerospace and marine industries to the airfield development sites, and for supporting them once there.’
