I did a similar study years ago when a property developer bought the site. They found that the local transportation and utility networks were not up to scratch. We looked at closing one runway and developing the north part of the airport for hangar homes and some other houses whilst retaining the primary business. The rest of the plan was to upgrade/add hangarage to attract business and importantly develop a world class café as pilots will fly for miles for a good cuppa and meal.
