I remember visiting Coventry airport and air museum in the early 80s and being shown around the hangers. It was quite a busy airfield back then with light aircraft constantly landing and taking off and even the odd commercial flight. I remember British Midland Viscounts flying out of there. It looks so quiet and derelict now, sad really.
Its been years since the City Airport has had proper flights out of it, I have pretty much lived on the flight path that planes have used all my life, from the back streets of willenhall to the binley road, used to always have planes flying overhead, now its only the rare helicopter or single engine/prop plane, now its either people have to get a lift to Birmingham, East Midlands or whatever
