LEGISLATION

UK Select Committee’s

Concern for future of Regional

and Business Airports

On Monday 19 January 2015 the House of

Commons Transport Select Committee heard

evidence from the aviation industry on the

importance of regional aviation and how it supports

transport infrastructure and importantly the

development of regional economies.

John Spooner, Chairman of Regional & Business

Airports Group (RABA) gave evidence to the

Committee explaining the vital importance of

regional airports and the role they play in local

economies which includes supporting key aviation

activities, creating jobs and describing the fiscal

and regulatory regimes. He explained that these add

significant costs which small airports don't have the

economies of scale to absorb. He also called

for a more flexible and supportive policy framework

around planning.

Commenting Mr Spooner said: 'It's very encouraging

to see that the Select Transport Committee has

recognised the vital importance of regional airports to

bringing economic prosperity and social benefit to the

Regions of the U.K. The questions they asked showed

that they understood the challenges that regional

aviation and smaller airports face every day and gave

the impression that they want to help."

The Committee was asked to help secure access from

the regions to London Airports, and allow excess areas

of land within regional airport sites (not needed for

airport purposes in the future) to be developed for non-

aeronautical employment purposes. “It was particularly

encouraging that the Select Committee appeared to

recognise the multitude of social and economic roles

performed by the UK's smaller regional airports not just

in connecting the regions to the capital and to

themselves but also enabling ambulance and

transplant flights, helicopter search and rescue and

oil and gas field support services, aircrew, flight and

engineering training, aircraft maintenance and a whole

host of other activities. These activities provide valuable

skilled and unskilled employment opportunities often

completely unconnected with aviation which make use

of the perfectly located sites of many of our airports

and airfields.” He said.

The Select Committee was interested to explore

why airports such as Plymouth, Manston, Coventry,

Blackpool and others had faced enormous

challenges during the economic recession. It was

equally interested to explore what could be done to

ensure that their future and that of the airlines, air

ambulances, training and engineering companies and

other employers could be made sustainable in the

future.

The Committee was told by RABA that it was

essential that the next runway to be developed in the

London area served the UK’s regions – and that

runway slots must be reserved at the right times and

at an affordable price for use by flights serving those

regions.

The Committee also discussed how the costs of

Air Passenger Duty and complying with UK regulatory

requirements were particularly damaging to UK

Regional Aviation.

Members of the RABA Group include Durham Tees

Valley, Southend, Newquay, Gloucestershire, Exeter,

City of Derry, Glasgow Prestwick, Coventry, Norwich,

Carlisle, Isle of Man, Guernsey, Lands End, Lydd

London- Ashford, Doncaster-Sheffield and Blackpool.

The Garmin GTX 3000 Mode S Extended

Squitter (ES) transponder and GDL® 88 ADS-B

datalink combine to fulfill global ADS-B require-

ments which meet the stringent demands of a

variety of aircraft types. This versatile ADS-B

solution addresses the necessary airspace

requirements to give business and transport

category aircraft operators an immediate path

to compliance.

“Garmin is thrilled

to broaden our

partnership with

Gulfstream to

extend this

all-inclusive

ADS-B Out solution

to the G200

business jet,” said Carl Wolf, vice president of

aviation sales and marketing.

“We continue to leverage our experience in

certified ADS-B solutions to provide timely,

integrated options for a wide range of aircraft

types. We are honored to work with admirable

partners such as Gulfstream to ensure their

customers continue to have access to airspace

around the world.”
