We lived at the end of the main runway of an operational RAF airfield in a small village in Wales.
As you can imagine the noise was much worse than Biggin Hill.
I feel Mr Buller is totally out of order suggesting Biggin Hill should be closed.
Many heroic men and women worked there during the war and it stands as a memorial to the people who lost their lives in defence of their country.
If it had not been for Biggin Hill and all the other military air stations we have in the country, Mr Buller would not be enjoying the freedom he has in this country.
