I'm surprised by this article title (Filton Aerodrome). I worked there from 1957 to 1993 and live only 10 miles away. It might have been called Filton Aerodrome many years ago but for a long time now it has been called Filton Airfield. I think the title should be changed if there's a concensus - Adrian Pingstone 20:37, 18 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The runway length is inconsistant between the text and the infobox. References? Joe D (t) 03:28, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The runway headings were wrong as well. Both the AIP and the WAD had same info on length and headings. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 04:23, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Name of article

According to the Filton Airfield website, the current correct name of the place is Bristol Filton Airport, so I intend to move this article from Filton Aerodrome to Bristol Filton Airport. Are there any objections to this? Gasheadsteve 08:06, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done, since no objections were raised. Gasheadsteve 10:50, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
