Popham Revisited

Two years on we return to Popham Airfield in Hampshire in the UK. A beautiful setting but challenging times as we find out from Dick Richardson who runs the airfield.

We ask Dick what effect the dreadful UK summer weather has had on business and how the nearby Olympics No Fly zone has impacted flying in the region.

Dick shares his thoughts about the future of the aerodrome and also tells us his ideas for keeping the business going.
