Pembrey Airport - Plans

Plans

Plans New leisure facilities around Pembrey, such as Ffos Las racecourse and Machynys Jack Nicholas championship golf course, have placed the airport at the center of Wales' fastest-growing tourism and leisure area. Heightened interest not only in ad hoc air services but also air transport/aerospace investment on airport land have led to suggestions that the airport's runway be extended to 2,400 m (7,874 ft) to allow operations of the Air Bus A320 passenger aircraft; VIP corporate jets; and horse/racecar carrying freighters. There is also pressure on Pembrey Airport to accept large military aircraft such as the C130, for refueling Logistics and training. Policy decisions by the Welsh Assembly Government are excited by the prospects and the future of Pembrey International Airport for the County of Carmarthenshire to provide services to South and West Wales and for the future of Welsh aviation.

    When I heard at the close of the day how my name had been receiv’d
    with plaudits in the capitol, still it was not a happy night for me
    that follow’d,
    And else when I carous’d, or when my plans were accomplish’d,
    still I was not happy,
    But the day when I rose at dawn from the bed of perfect health,
    refresh’d, singing, inhaling the ripe breath of autumn,
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
