This shot shows how well the airfield stands out from the surrounding urban and wooded areas. 11 September 2000. © Nick Challoner.

The extra strips of asphalt on both sides of the runway
that were laid a few years ago can be clearly seen, as can the widening of the concrete starter extension. The runway doesn't look very long from
this angle, but that's approximately 8,000ft of asphalt to roll out on!
