Gents, we have had a large influx of new members, some of whom hail from further north than Watford. As AFA started life as a forum for those predominantly in the south ( we were mainly ex members of the old Farnborough forum), this has been reflected in the existing UK GA/Biz sub forum where the fields listed are all in the south. Existing members who live up north have up to now been kind enough to post their logs and photos on a catch all " anywhere else" sub forum but after talking with Jeff and Bill, we think we ought to make things fairer for our midland and northern friends and introduce sub forums for specific fields and split the master forum for UK GA/Biz into North and South to make it more manageable. So, over to you guys, which midland/northern fields should we feature here with their own sub forum? I have to put my hands up and admit I don't even know where the major fields are, so if you visit a specific field regularly, live near one or even work at one, please add to the list below ( nothing there yet....!)and we will do out utmost to accommodate you. We'll give it a week and see where we go. With regard to the major midland/northern airports we currently only have sub forums for Manchester and Liverpool so if anyone would like East Mids, Newcastle, etc given their own sub forum, then please add those below too many thanks

Thanks lads, keep them coming, I can't promise we will have room for a sub forum for every one but let's see how many we get in by the end of the week

Humberside is maybe good for an annual visit, I pass through about 30 times a year and regularly only log the flight I'm on. Based helicopters don't seem to rotate very often and in winter visitors are very limited. Another North East airport that has limited appeal now is DTV since they have stopped charter flights and Sycamore don't seem to be doing much work and Cobham aircraft are often away. North East is really limited to Leeds Bradford and Newcastle.

Thanks Bob, apologies for the delay in getting this up and running, have been away in Cornwall for six days and only got home yesterday. I will try to get it all sorted out over the weekend, cheers.
