Merge with Bruntingthorpe Aerodrome?[edit]

Why isn't this article merged with Bruntingthorpe Aerodrome? Checkingfax (talk) 20:05, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Because we don't put the military airfields with the post MoD/Air Ministry use installations unless the new use is a major airport (e.g RAF Baginton is with Coventry Airport and RAF Elmdon is with Birmingham Airport) or if the military airfield was too small and it is merged with the nearest village article (e.g RAF Clyffe Pypard is located within Clyffe Pypard).
