Next year’s Waddington Air Show has been cancelled due to a £35m rebuild of the runway.
The work will extend Waddington’s 9,000ft runway by 528 feet and increase its operational life by 25 years.

Aircraft will be forced to operate from other bases during the work, even though they will still be controlled from Waddington.
A large amount of construction machinery and workers will be at the site to complete the work.

It's only a rumour, but I'm wondering where they'll find the space for the extension.
I don't want to say anything about the space where the protesters gather, you understand.....
